Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
In a genre overfilled with narratives of treasure-seeking elves comes a truly original work. "Pages of Pain" spins the story of a man with no memory, ordered by a god to deliver a "gift" to the enigmatic and terrible ruler of Sigil, a city more or less at the center of the universe. The Amnesian Hero hopes that the task will lead to the restoration of his past -- but the mysterious Lady of Pain intends to show him that desire is what makes anguish possible. Denning's novel is told from a shifting point of view and is unlike any other in the AD&D mythos. A must read.

Format:Taschenbuch
Have you ever read a poem, or seen a movie without completely understanding them - yet still found you really loved them? This is one of these stories. This is the story of a memory-less hero, who embarks on a quest to find his memory. The tale of his exploits is not an ordinary adventure tale: his adventures are poetic - philosophical. This a story which really makes the reader think. I know I did not fully comprehend all of it. Yet it is worth the read. This book will be great to anyone who loves philosophical fantasy novels - or loves the planescape setting.
Format:Taschenbuch
Pages of Pain is a wonderful book at first. The city of Sigil is described beautifully and all of its inhabitants react to the main character interestingly. The main character himself is a pompous paladin who also is well-developed. The problem comes just before the half-way point of the book when the hero is thrown into a maze. This is itself not a problem and is consistant with the Planescape setting. The problem is that the hero spends the entire rest of the book just wandering around hunting the 'maze monster.' The previous depth and complexity of the story is all but abandoned. Sure, there are a few interesting tidbits left in the characters, but the last half of the book is disappointing.

Could have been better
The ambiance in Sigil was described with great details but the story spirals toward a dead-end when the characters enter the mazes. I also didn't like the Lady of Pain character. Lesen Sie weiter...
