NOVEL NOTIONS enjoys Patricia A. McKillip’s THE FORGOTTEN BEASTS OF ELD.
THE FORGOTTEN BEASTS OF ELD is as lovely as it is brief. As I said above, I’ve developed quite a deep appreciation for and fondness of fantasy authors who choose to tell bright, quiet stories instead of embracing the breakneck action and grim-darkness that so populate the genre. If you need a book that will help you take a deep breath in the midst of your feverishly-paced life, I heartily recommend a visit to Sybel’s world.
A pair of Hungarian sites praised the World Fantasy Award winning novel.
It is no coincidence that, as short as it is today, the book – barely two hundred pages – tells such a rich story full of characters that at first it is difficult to love, but we are guaranteed to catch it at the end.
