Horror for Newbies
Susan asked this question about The Wise Man's Fear (The Kingkiller Chronicle, #2):
Why is Denna so shittily written? In fact why is this thing full of wish fulfillment cardboard-cutouts? Also, why do women only have a decorative function in it?
Georgie I will agree that the women and girls in the book are seen through a young mans eyes. That's as it should be,in my opinion. The characters are young. …moreI will agree that the women and girls in the book are seen through a young mans eyes. That's as it should be,in my opinion. The characters are young. The writing of the whole series has been a delight. Unusual people that you don't often see realized in a novel are treated with respect and compassion and kindness. What's wrong with seeing someone hurt confused mistreated with real feelings, acting out? The Slow Regard of Silent Things I see a story about an amazing damaged young women.
