Kirjaudu LibraryThingiin nähdäksesi, pidätkö tästä kirjasta vai et. Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. Kinda cute quick read, but only for die-hard fans of the series. After the first book, the rest are pretty shoddily written. ( ) A childhood favorite re-visited. Is the story as good as I remember? – Yes What ages would I recommend it too? – Twelve and up. While ten to twelve might enjoy it, there are many ideas they will not understand. Though, they will certainly get many of the jokes. Length? – Most of a day’s read. Characters? – Memorable, several characters. Setting? – Fantasy, alternate dimensions. Written approximately? – 1984. Does the story leave questions in the readers mind? – Ready to read more. Any issues the author (or a more recent publisher) should cover? No. Short storyline: Skeeve, Aahz, and associates are just getting started with their new business on Deva. When three thieves escape through a hidden door behind a tapestry in the waiting room, Aahz has to go after them, or risk the whole group being banned from Deva permanently. This door leads to an interesting magic-less dimension where vampires are the norm, and humans are not. It takes all of their brain, brawn, and skill to rescue Aahz, capture the three thieves, and return them to the Deva authorities. Notes for the reader: In this story, this author takes the emotions of his characters seriously. The characters don’t just race through the story full of action without emotion. The author realized the importance of the reader connecting to the characters by giving us the emotions, and even the reasons behind those sometimes odd emotions for the situation. While the first few times, it is a shock to the system to actually read of a character having an emotion, soon, it just becomes an enhancement to the story. In fact, when the lack of emotions by the main character becomes apparent in a later story, even that is noted by all the characters, until it is resolved. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
