Advantages: Can be an exciting story Disadvantages: Poorly drawn characters
by a magician from the neighbouring land of Sachaka and uses magical talents she didn't know she possessed to fight him off.
On discovering this, the local magician Lord Dakon takes Tessia on as his apprentice, teaching her how to control her powers and use them more effectively. Tessia is determined to combine the two and find a way of using magic to heal people. Before she can really concentrate on this, though, the magician she first used her powers against invades Kyralia and the land is plunged into war. This not only interrupts Tessia's training, but also results in the deaths of her parents and introduces her to a dark side of life she never knew existed.
At first glance, this sounds like a pretty exciting story. A young woman, newly empowered but holding good intentions for how she can use that power, is thrown into a sudden ...
Advantages: More Mitchell and Webb and Peep Show style comedy Disadvantages: Could maybe have been a bit funnier.
Magicians follows the careers of magicians Harry and Karl. Once a famous duet but ever since Karl screwed Harry's wife and Harry's accidental murder of her afterwards the two have went their separate ways and are struggling in the world alone. They then decide to pair up for the big Magic tournament that offers a grand cash prize of £20,000.
This is a good comedy film. More for fans of Peep Show and Mitchell and Webb, but it still translates to others. Karl (played by Robert Webb - Jeremy) is paired up in the plot with his agent a repressive homosexual who tries to bring Karl on side, whilst Karl pursues the naive Dani and tries to woo her by pretending to be physic and able to contact her dead father.
Harry (played by David Webb - Mark) meets a new assisstant is attracted to him yet he is reluctant at first. Especialy as he hasn ...
Advantages: Very good fantasy read Disadvantages: Waffles a bit in places, as any good fantasy does
I found this book searching Play.com, in the fantasy genre, and it had a good review on there, so for a fiver I thought it couldn't be bad.
I started reading and was instantly struck with how good a book this is. It is so well written and is definitely the finest book Raymond E. Feist has ever written.
It is set on a fantasy world called Midkemia, and follows the story of Pug, an orphan boy who's life is changed forever when he becomes a magicians apprentice. It is similar to the middle ages of Britain, with castles and knights, but with enough magic thrown in to keep you on your toes. There are also the classic races, elves dwarves, orcs, along with some not so classic, such as the Dark elves and the Powerful, fighting force of the Tsurani.
The main aspect of the story is that aliens invade Midkemia, through magic rifts, not space ...
