Victor Tanasa a dat nota:

I didn't like how the first 150 to 200 pages of Bloody Rose were spent wandering from city to city, mostly focusing on fights I know the band will win, all the while getting minimum character development, and all this at the expense of the main plotline. I also found the "old guys getting the band together again" from the first book more fun and interesting than the "I want to get out of my father's shadow" trope used here. At times, there were way too many descriptions of the monsters the band is facing, which bored and made me want to skip those passages. On the plus side, the good mix of humor and serious themes is still there. A solid follow-up, although I enjoyed Kings of the Wyld much more.

Notă biografică

Nicholas Eames was born to parents of infinite patience and unstinting support in Wingham, Ontario. Though he attended college for theatre arts, he gave up acting to pursue the much more attainable profession of 'epic fantasy novelist.'Kings of the Wyldwas his first novel. Nicholas loves black coffee, neat whiskey, the month of October, and video games. He currently lives in Ontario, Canada, and is very probably writing at this moment.

Recenzii

"Bloody Rosesolidifies whatKings of the Wyldproved. Eames writes like a hurricane and hasa voice like no one else in this genre."—Sam Sykes
"I laughed, and wept, and worried a lot, and had the most tremendous time readingBloody Rose.Eames is a gifted and entertaining storyteller."—Kevin Hearne
"Humorous twists and pulse-ratcheting action aboundinBloody Rose, but its Eames' knack for heart-wrenching poignancy that makes his warm, wonderful fantasy so harmonious."—NPR
"Kings of the Wyldis gritty but not grim. It was a blast to read, from start to finish. The boys are getting the band back together, and woe be to anyone who stands in their way. Magic swords, broken promises, and some of the craziest action you're likely to read this side of the Wyld. Reading this book made me want to grab a sword and set off on an epic quest."
—Christopher Paolini on Kings of the Wyld
"I was a big fan ofKings of the Wyld, but I thinkBloody Rosehas actually topped it. Eames once again hits the perfect balance of humor and heart, irreverent references and real emotion. The characters are great, the adventure is epic, and he's slowly deepening the worldbuilding in a way thathas me eager for more."—Django Wexler, author of The Thousand Names
"The equivalent of a 500-page heavy metal guitar solo:loud, frenetic, unpredictable, and gripping. . . . This is a messy, glorious romp worthy of multiple encores."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"High-octane thrill ride, with one splashy action battle sequence after another, with the stakes ever-rising, until the final countdown."—B&N SF & Fantasy Blog
"George R. R. Martin meets Terry Pratchett."—Buzzfeed Books on Kings of the Wyld
"A fantastic read, arollicking, page-turning, edge-of-your-seat road-tripof a book. Great characters,loveable roguesthat I genuinely cared about and all manner of fantastical monsters. All spiced with a sly sense of humour that had me smiling throughout. Wonderful."—John Gwynne on Kings of the Wyld
"Brilliant debut novel... Eames has cranked the thrills of epic fantasy up to 11... Moreover, the plot isemotionally rewarding, original, and hilarious. Eames clearly set out to write something fun to read, and he has succeeded spectacularly."—Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Kings of the Wyld
"Absolutely awesome.If the Beatles held a concert tomorrow (with all the necromancy required for that to happen), it still wouldn't be as good a 'getting the band back together' story as this.Full of heroes, humor, and heart."—Jon Hollins on Kings of the Wyld
"Nicholas Eames bringsbrazen fun and a rock & roll sensibilityto the fantasy genre."—Sebastien de Castell on Kings of the Wyld
