Despite Jim's insistence, this is hardly the worst conglomerate of fantasy tropes I've ever read. Still, his current-self's MST3K-style mockery of his older writing is fun & useful. For any fantasy RPG fans who think you just need dungeon stories written out, read this. It will make you raise your eyebrow at many things you aren't aware of in writing without experience. Well done, Jim. ( ) It's best to understand the point of this book from Jim Hines himself: http://whatever.scalzi.com/2014/12/02/the-big-idea-jim-c-hines-4/ It's very unusual for an author to share their first effort, let alone present it with annotations which are humorously rueful. Makes for fun reading, and would be most helpful to any aspiring fantasy writer. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la série
In 2006, DAW Books published Jim C. Hines' debut novel Goblin Quest. But before Jig the goblin, before fairy tale princesses and magic librarians and spunky fire-spiders, there was Nakor the Purple, an elf who wanted nothing more than to stand around watching lovingly overdescribed sunrises with his pet owl Flame, who might actually be a falcon, depending on which chapter you're reading.This is Nakor's story, written in 1995 and never before shared with the world. (For reasons that will soon be painfully clear.) Together with an angsty vampire, a pair of pixies, and a feisty young thief, Nakor must find a way to stop an Ancient Evil before she destroys the world. (Though, considering the rel-atively shallow worldbuilding, it's not like there's much to destroy...)With more than 5000 words of bonus annotation and smart-ass commentary, this is a book that proves every author had to start somewhere, and most of the time, that place wasn't very pretty.
