Iscriviti per consentire a LibraryThing di scoprire se ti piacerà questo libro. Attualmente non vi sono conversazioni su questo libro. Fantasy is an extremely difficult genre to write. In a fantastic world you have to give your reader familiar points of reference. Tanith Lee eschews this approach. Her heroine is born, full grown Athena-like in a volcano and walks out with the powers of a God. Neither she nor the reader know who she is, and the reader is given no reason to care. All the characters are one dimensional, the writing is pretty bad. I understand this was the author's first novel, so maybe things improved later. I picked this up not long after reading a very positive review in _Analog_ (so ... possibly by P. Schuyler Miller ...?), and was pretty entranced by it. It was Lee's first, if I recall. The only thing I really remember about it was that the main character wore a mask, and that while it seemed to be fantasy at the beginning it turned into actual science fiction by the end. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

A mysterious woman awakens in the heart of a dormant volcano. She comes forth into a brutal ancient world transformed by genocidal pestilence, fierce beauty, and cultural devastation. She has no memory of herself, and she could be anyone--mortal woman, demoness lover, last living heir to a long-gone race, or a goddess of destruction. Compelled by the terrifying Karrakaz to search for the mysterious Jade that is the answer to her secret self, she embarks on a journey of timeless wonder. Rediscover this realm of brilliant cruel beauty and seductive immortal ruins, of savage war and grand conquest, of falling stars and silver gods. This 40th anniversary edition of legendary fantastist Tanith Lee's debut novel includes its original introduction by Marion Zimmer Bradley. Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |
