Reviews10

Disliked

I think it's potentially good it's just not well-executed great ideas and I think standards setting for its time but it just hasn't aged well because everything in its been doing done better now

Disliked

I was not a fan of Ender's Game and that just really comes down to I think I just went in with a bad mindset at wind-up mythix I know the author is a gigantic tool bag and that does affect my enjoyment sometimes I'm willing to admit that and I also heard the ending spoiled

Loved

Christopher Paolini as a kid he pulled very blatantly from other authors but we resulted in that is it's like the perfect intro to fantasy for young readers because you're going to tell you about everything you should expect in fantasy because he just took all these fantasy elements and crafted a story out of it

Liked

I have one of those called ody see I've read it's a fine story it's a retelling of the Iliad in the Odyssey in space but the art style in it's just amazing and I dig it for that

Liked

I got pleasantly surprised with pet cemeteries audio book is done by Michael C Hall and if there's any ones whose voice is designed to do Stephen King's stuff it's Dexter but that really works well

Liked

I of the world is I like his initial concept of let's take Lord of the Rings except Robert Jordan grew up in the country and he was like that's not how farm boys and react to someone telling them I need to leave home so let's write the actual story of that

Loved

you and I have both keep praising that story pretty much non-stop but I just I don't understand how it's not held up like A Song of Ice and Fire like it's it's it's almost perfect at what it's trying to do I get set out to tell a certain story and it told it magnificently
