Description

How hard can it be to write a fantasy trilogy? From Carnegie Medalist Mal Peet comes an outrageously funny black comedy about an impoverished literary writer who makes a pact with the devil.

Award-winning YA author Philip Murdstone is in trouble. His star has waned. The world is leaving him behind. His agent, the ruthless Minerva Cinch, convinces him that his only hope is to write a sword-and-sorcery blockbuster. Unfortunately, Philip--allergic to the faintest trace of Tolkien--is utterly unsuited to the task. In a dark hour, a dwarfish stranger comes to his rescue. But the deal he makes with Pocket Wellfair turns out to have Faustian consequences. The Murdstone Trilogy is a richly dark comedy described by one U.K. reviewer as "totally insane in the best way possible."

Leichte Kost für zwischendrin

Die Idee eines gefeierten Kinderbuchautor der jetzt Fantasy schreiben will find ich witzig. Es ist schon länger her, dass ich es gelesen habe. Daher ist eine umfassende Rezession nicht wirklich sinnvoll möglich.
