| This is the type of fantasy I like best! Full of wonder and discovery, the pacing of the story is like the rhythm of the ocean. There is time to breathe and explore and escape from the manic rush of modern society. The themes of being caught between ...more | |

Good review! I've always said Herbert is amazing with ideas and worldbuilding, but he's not a strong storyteller. The IDEAS behind Dune are amazing. T

So difficult to write a review of this one, but I shall try my best. This book felt more brutal than Echo North. The brutality of certain scenes was a little much for me to take and did nearly make me put the book down. It just seemed a little out of ...more |

| I had heard so much about this book that I came in with high expectations. I was not prepared for the first five chapters. The story was so different from what I expected and I was a little bit underwhelmed. But then I started noticing the sentences. ...more | |

“I used to think I was the broken one and that the world owed me something because it was whole. But everybody’s broken, Druce. And they make everything so complicated.”

“But no one except Lucy knew that as it circled the mast it had whispered to her, "Courage, dear heart," and the voice, she felt sure, was Aslan's, and with the voice a delicious smell breathed in her face.”

“Suppose... suppose we have only dreamed and made up these things like sun, sky, stars, and moon, and Aslan himself. In that case, it seems to me that the made-up things are a good deal better than the real ones. And if this black pits of a kingdom is the best you can make, then it's a poor world. And we four can make a dream world to lick your real one hollow.”

“When once a man is launched on such an adventure as this, he must bid farewell to hopes and fears, otherwise death or deliverance will both come too late to save his honor and his reason. Ho, my beauties!”
