I'd forgotten how wry Alexander can be and how delightful his characters are. I'm glad this came up at a good time for a revisit. ( ) It was a pleasant read. It reminded me of my very limited knowledge of Greek mythology because I only caught a few of the allusions. Perhaps I need to read a book such as: [b:Percy Jackson's Greek Gods|32280405|Percy Jackson's Greek Gods|Rick Riordan|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1474938388s/32280405.jpg|26384073], which a daughter gave to me last month. It also reminded me a lot of the Wizard of Oz. At times the women seem too trusting in the men. This tale of three friends (a boy, a girl, and a poet turned into a donkey) borrows tales from the Iliad and Odyssey, and turns them into something new and exciting. The friends are off to save a kingdom, save a religion, and turn the poet human again (before he's a permanent donkey). Lucian and Joy-in-the-Dance are also falling in love and finding themselves. Alexander's whimsical story-telling voice is as strong as ever, but the plot and mythic elements did not move me in the way his other works have. I felt the re-imagining of traditional tales in this context to be pleasant enough, but it didn't add to my experience, or draw out the spark I was hoping for. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
