Wildwood is a spellbinding tale full of wonder, danger, and magic that juxtaposes the thrill of a secret world and modern city life. And what begins as a rescue mission becomes something much bigger as the two friends find themselves entwined in a struggle for the very freedom of this wilderness. There they uncover a secret world in the midst of violent upheaval, a world full of warring creatures, peaceable mystics, and powerful figures with the darkest intentions. So begins an adventure that will take Prue and her friend Curtis deep into the Impassable Wilderness. You see, on every map of Portland, Oregon, there is a big splotch of green on the edge of the city labeled “I.W.” This stands for “Impassable Wilderness.” No one’s ever gone in - or at least returned to tell of it.Īnd this is where the crows take her brother.

The Binti series is all about clashing cultures and prejudice, it’s about being a lone voice for reconciliation and peace while friends and enemies plan for war. Reading Binti: The Night Masquerade and my thoughts are again drawn to the bullshit argument that political science fiction or message fiction is dull, that it lacks the sense of wonder and inventiveness of so-called escapist SF. The fact that Binti still stands tall, while she continues to come to terms with who and what she is and deal with the agony of events that have come to pass, makes her such a compelling character. In this third book she now needs to repair deep wounds and of course, this comes with a great deal of pain and loss. It’s what made the second novella in this series so powerful ( Home) because she was compelled to confront the prejudice of her family and community after experiencing a spiritual and literal change. In the case of Binti, her mathematical prowess forces her to leave her rigid community. Even if they have talents or powers or something that marks them out as exceptional that difference generally only makes things worse. Nothing comes easily to the protagonists of Okarafor’s fiction. Všichni cestují faxem – ale jen tam, kam je to dovoleno – a jsou obsluhování podivnými tvory – voynixy.Ī nakonec jsou tu moravci – obyvatelé jupiterovských měsíců – a jejich expedice, která má zjistit, proč se v posledních letech tak zvýšila kvantová aktivita na Marsu…ĭan Simmons opět namíchal neuvěřitelný koktejl z věci na první pohled nespojitelných. Současně probíhá děj na Zemi, která je po mnoha a mnoha katastrofách obydlena pouze zbytkem lidstva, které je negramotné. Snídá s prostými vojáky obou znepřátelených stran a pokouší se – s větším či menším úspěchem – zasáhnout do dění. Průvodcem nám je profesor Thomas Hockenberry, který celý život studoval a přednášel Ilias a Odysseu… a teď je dennodenně z vůle Múzy Meleté přítomen obléhání Tróje. Tak začíná nejslavnější Homérův epos a jsou to i první slova románu Dana Simmonse.Īle to je jen úvod, jen vstup do knihy, která nám představí bohy a hrdiny starověkého Řecka, Achájce i Trójany, ve zcela novém světle. „O hněvu Achillea, syna Péleova, zabijáka soucit neznajícího, osudem k smrti předurčeného, nám zpívej, ó Múzo." In short, the novel is pure entertainment, even if it has things to say about popular culture, sexuality and fatherhood, too. The novel, while long, is varied in scene, with chapters often reading like a self-contained instalment of a long work, much like the serialised stories of comic books. Chabon’s novel does not read like a Boys’ Own Adventure, despite the promise of the title, although there are various scenes in the book which are gripping and adventurous, including Josef’s (Joe’s) escape from Prague to America sharing a sarcophagus with a Jewish Golem, to his period in Antarctica as a radioman listening to Nazi U-Boat signals, where he even mounts a daring if somewhat pointless attack on a lone German geologist in another Antarctic station. The story centres upon comic book creators Josef Kavalier and Sammy Clay, beginning in the late 1930s and ending with the hearings of the United States Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency, otherwise known as the Comic Book Hearings of 1954. Michael Chabon’s The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay is a fictional account of comic books during the ‘Golden Age’ of comics. They must defy the Clave and strike out on their own. Only a small band of Clary and Jace’s friends and family believe that Jace can still be saved – and that the fate of the Shadowhunters’ future may hinge on that salvation. Will the Shadowhunters hesitate to kill one of their own? The Clave is determined to destroy Sebastian, but there is no way to harm one boy without destroying the other. He and Sebastian are now bound to each other, and Jace has become what he most feared: a true servant of Valentine’s evil. When they meet again Clary discovers the horror Lilith’s dying magic has brought – Jace is no longer the boy she loved. No magic the Clave can summon can locate either boy, but Jace cannot stay away – not from Clary. Not only is the boy Clary loves missing, but so is the boy she hates, Sebastian, the son of her father, Valentine: a son determined to succeed where their father failed and bring the Shadowhunters to their knees. But when the Shadowhunters arrive to rescue him, they find only blood and broken glass. The demon, Lilith, has been destroyed and Jace has been freed from her captivity.
