Recensioni

On Stranger Tides di Tim Powers

Read to about 50%, then stopped. Too much undermotivated voodoo.

After Many A Summer di Tim Powers

The down on his luck screenwriter who gets involved with the strange ransom, remains unconvincing even when one has suspended belief to the point of accepting an electrically activated oracular head.

On Stranger Tides di Tim Powers

On Stranger Tides, the inspiration for Pirates of the Caribbean was a wonderfully fun easy read that held up well against the movie series based upon it. Despite Disney's opinions otherwise, I'd love to see a movie that was truer to the book as there were a number of scenes where Tim Powers descriptions (especially those as some characters head into scenes from Dante's Inferno towards the Fountain of Youth that I don't believe my minds eye did justice too.

Jack Shandys rise to pirate fame is hardly believable, you end up rooting for his character all along the way as he's just a good guy that ends up being a pirate because of a couple instances of misplaced loyalty.… (altro)

Declare: A Novel di Tim Powers

A spy novel/secret history of the 20th century, with the cold war, and the Great Game recast as a contest to either control or destroy actual, literal djinn. Third time reread. It continues to work really well for me.
