Questo è in realtà un romanzo più che altro fantasy, atipico e surreale, ambientato in un futuro non troppo remoto sconvolto da una serie di "apocalissi" sia naturali che causate dall'uomo, pieno di mostri e stranezze. Una storia di caccia e ricerca, di vendetta e amicizia, di amore e dolore, il tutto sotto l'impronta della gran fantasia dell'autore che tra un'avventura ed un'altra dimostra una bella capacità di scrittura. Un romanzo originale, intrigante e curioso, avvincente ma leggerino. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

World Enough, and Time is the first book of this spellbinding action adventure trilogy. In a post-apocalyptic world 200 years from now, humans are a dying species. When Joshua's wife is kidnapped by a griffin and a vampire, he and his comrades, a centaur and an android, set out to rescue her across a surreal landscape filled with seemingly mythological creatures. But the explanation for the existence of these beasts is based in science, and informed by nightmare. And the odyssey isn't over until they confront the evil cabal whose goal is nothing less than the extinction of the human race. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

I really recommend getting one's hand on a copy of this book. There are parts where it drags, a bit reminiscent of "look at this cool place!" that authors tend to use when they need to pad a book, but the depth of it is in the self-doubt that occurs when the protagonist Centaur finds out that his kind did not come from a far-distant island, but were, rather, the invention of human genetic tinkering."
