Hello,,a few olde timers may remember me with an awareness keen and and yet respectful of distance. To all those I am unfamiliar with , I look foward to what you can educate me on.
I have read Fatal Revenant. Or ,,I have Felt Fatal Revenant. The experience of readin the TCoTC is so very tactile , inner nerves are awoken and rousted as the nerves on ones finger tips.
SO far, Fatal Revenant is imho,,one of Donaldson best efforts. As easily noted by others by now , the authors use of Olde English and as well, making some New words as demonstrated in Fatal Revenant , exhibits Donaldson's skill in a mature and grand form.
The structure of the novel is classic Donaldson with subtle hints along the way of things to be thinking of,, clues to start gathering, and a frame of mind, a perspective if you will, a ,,knowing,,of what he is saying or getting at by his arcane use of words.,,Am I the only one who smelled a wif of Lawyers in the Insequent?
As I stated when Runes came out,, this is not the same author who wrote Lord Fouls Bane. This is the person who has lived and learned, experienced and grew and for better and for worst, his accumulated wisdom , compassion, and humor he lays out for us to behold and do with what we will.As dark and troubled as Donaldson gets ,,and takes us into, for us to feel alive,,there it is , i've said it,,his work remains so very much life affirming. Real Knowledge is earned, thru Living Life.
