Pathetic dribble,

This review is from: Thongor Dragon City (Paperback)
Everything that a Conan of Cimmeria story is, this book attempts to become, and fails. The barbarian is from the frozen North, his god is 'Gorm' (Conan's is 'Crom'), he swings mighty sword, blah, blah, blah. I stopped reading at the beginning of the third chapter, when the 4th grade writing made me gag.
"The 'urlium hull was lighter, for the negative influence of the lightning had begun to wear off, but the airboat was still far from ready to fly, although Thongor and Karm Karvus had anchored it securely to the purple bole of a mighty jannibar tree for protection, binding it securely with a rope of woven vines." That's one sentence, and four thoughts, and not a single piece of punctuation would fix it. My six year old talks in sentences like this. If you are 7 or 8 years old, maybe you'll like this story. I don't know how it ends for Thongor, but for me it ends there in chapter 3. |
