Original fantasy, with an ironic and sarcastic twist, Mai 21 2003
Blue Moon Rising seemed to have two very interesting facets. At first, it was funny, and silly - almost a little too much so. The first two chapters reminded me of "Shrek" - I was reading about a cowardly frightened unicorn and a dragon that collected butterflies. Then, the book took on a slightly darker tone. The adventures became more serious, more dangerous, and generally more descriptive. Although humor was intertwined with the rest of the action in the novel, it was no longer the focus point of the story.There isn't much about the book I didn't like. At first I was a little weary of the humor, and the tone of the beginning of the book, but as that tone changed, I started liking the book more and more. If there were one thing I could note as having "disliked", it would be the repetition. I can't remember the number of times something enveloped one of the characters "like an old familiar cloak", for example. The writing style was simple, and it worked well with the novel. It reminded me of the writing style used in Dragonlance novels. Simple, yet not child-like. Descriptive, yet not over-the-top. I would definitely recommend this book for those looking for a fun fantasy read, with an original, ironic and sarcastic twist not found in other fantasy novels.
