Kylantis mėlynas mėnulis: Pirmoji dalis

Forest Kingdom #1, part 1 of 2

by Simon R. Green, Simonas R. Grynas, Modestas Vitkauskas (Translator)

Tada buvo didvyrių ir niekšų, o tamsa klaidžiojo po žemę. Buvo drakonų, kuriuos reikėdavo užmušti, buvo pagrobtų princesių, kurias reikėdavo išlaisvinti, o visus žygdarbius atlikdavo riteriai, dėvintys žėrinčius šarvus. Legendos byloja apie tuos laikus, apie didvyrių nepalaužiamą narsumą ir beprotišką drąsą.

About the author

Simon Richard Green is a British science fiction and fantasy-author. He holds a degree in Modern English and American Literature from the University of Leicester. His first publication was in 1979.

His Deathstalker series is partly a parody of the usual space-opera of the 1950s, told with sovereign disregard of the rules of probability, while being at the same time extremely bloodthirsty.

[Ponytaorponyboy · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love fairy tale-likes that subvert the genre.
A "damsel in distress" who is actually really good at fighting?
A "mean dragon" who is very loyal to his friends?
A "prince" who is a second son and has a death wish? (sort of?)
A "unicorn" who misses a horn?
I love it, hahaha

Zapowiadało się zabawnie, wyszło przeciętnie. Niestety niczego nowego tu nie uświadczymy, a bohaterowie i fabuła po prostu dla nas będą.

An excellent audio adaptation of one of my all time favourite books.
