Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'A superior epic fantasy, driven by strong characterization and a sense of utter desperation.' -Booklife Reviews Editor's Pick.'A Cracking page-turner with an unlikely group of misfits.' - PrairieS Book Review'Hunt exemplifies how to make heroes shine within the large cast of a sprawling saga.' - Kirkus Reviews'A skyrocketing plot interspersed with deliciously entertaining and well-constructed scenes of fierce battles and magic.' - BookView Reviews Recommended Read'A great read with strong characterization. It's likely to appeal to fans of epic fantasy novels such as those of Brandon Sanderson and Robert Jordan.' - Reedsy DiscoveryTheir world was ending, all the heroes were dead, the leaders confused, and their enemies were head and shoulders above them. But there was no one else; they were the dregs, the last worst hopes.Nehring Ardgour has summoned Skoll and Hati from hell. They have torn through the proud and ancient country of Engevelen and the angelic Methueyn Knights that protect it. Armies have died, cities have fallen. None of the great remain. No brilliant inventors, no powerful knights, no master wizards.No heroes.But it gets worse. Farrah Harbinger has looked into the future and foretells the coming of an enemy worse than all the others, a creature of destruction and entropy like no other. A being who will grind all hopes and memory of civilization into dust: the One, True Devil.Who can stop it Who is left to even try Surely not Val, an arrogant young wizard who no one takes seriously, or Mick, an old man who can't even remember his name. Certainly not Dav, who cannot seem to tell left from right or up from down, or Aveline, a squire filled with more questions than courage. No one would pick them to save the world, and yet there is no one else left.…

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Seiten: 322 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | A philosophically minded series opener that deftly merges science, fantasy, and college life. - Kirkus Reviews Recommended Read Mathematics matter as much as magic in Hunt's inventive adult fantasy, a modern take on the wizarding school. - Booklife Reviews "These books will change how you see the world." - Amanda Hall, CEO of Summit Nanotech "I highly recommend Dynamicist - it's a well-thought-out, high minded fantasy with a very satisfying set of twists and turns that's not quite like anything else I have read in high fantasy. And to me, that's a great accomplishment indeed." -J. Scott Coatsworth, Liminal Fiction Would it kill you to create something genuinely new? In Robert's world, it used to. Supernatural vengeance for invention is now a thing of the past. Young, optimistic, quick of mind and quick to act, Robert thinks being invited to the New School is an invitation to change the world. But change is difficult when there is no history of innovation. He is initially successful in his studies, but nothing is as simple as he naively imagines. His classmates confuse and frustrate him. One is a drunk, while another two constantly stalk him. Is it for love or something more sinister? Robert's optimism is further tested by protestors who circle the campus, decrying the newly invented breed of grain. They claim it is poison and that the New School should be punished by Nimrheal, the god who formerly murdered inventors. Robert suspects foreign business influences are behind the protests, but he quickly finds that investigating their cause is dangerous. Robert's most difficult challenges are his unresolved childhood issues. His mother died while he was a child. Robert's formative helplessness and inability to remember her face projects into a powerful and blinding protectiveness towards all women. When a campus assault pushes Robert over the edge, his hopes of even staying at the New School are jeopardized. He cannot aspire to change the world if he does not even know himself. At the same time as Robert struggles on campus, a powerful, ruthless and emotionally closed man known only as the Lonely Wizard journeys across an empty wilderness to return home. As Robert and the Lonely Wizard move closer together, Robert finds that instead of entering a golden era of invention, he may instead be on the brink of a cold war and an endless, unchanging dark age.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Seiten: 438 | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | This is an exciting, expansive, and ultimately satisfying exploration of the meaning of heroism, the economics of magic, and the role of innovation in society. -Booklife ReviewsA bold fantasy sequel that delivers on the first volume's call to action. - Kirkus ReviewsRobert thought becoming a dynamicist would enable him to change the world, starting with saving all his friends from being slaughtered. He was wrong.Acts of genuine creativity used to bring mortal punishment. But now, wizardry is dead and Robert, Koria and Eloise live in a world where change and invention is possible.Robert hopes that mathematically-framed dynamics will enable him to change the new world. But he keeps having prophetic dreams where his friends are all murdered by a mysterious cloaked man, and the grain protestors are more menacing than ever. They declare dynamics is dangerous and that the changes must stop. They are right about one thing: dynamics is dangerous, especially for someone so hopeful, angry and impetuous as Robert.Soon Robert's horrific nightmares come true and a cloaked man appears on campus, stalking and murdering students --his friends are next. Desperate to change the future, Robert recklessly pushes the bounds of both dynamics and reason. Every crushing failure dampens Robert's hope for the future and pushes him a step closer to the powerful, nihilistic, and merciless Lonely Wizard.…
