sunn_bleach 's review for:
Fain the Sorcerer
by Steve Aylett
adventurous
funny
fast-paced
There's a nugget of a good idea here - a humble gardener finding his way around the "no wishing for more wishes" rule and all the time-travel hijinx that could come with that. Unfortunately, I just didn't really find this book funny. Alan Moore's introduction makes it seem like this is going to be some totally wacky and idea-filled romp, but it reads more like the kind of humor I'd write in middle school when I thought my idea of a semi-transparent purple dragon hogging the road was the funniest thing ever (nobody laughed when I read it aloud). Plenty of "lolrandom xD", little substance. It reads like it was written in an afternoon and then sent to print.
Minor: Body horror, Cursing
