Book Review - THE WOOD NYMPH AND THE CRANKY SAINT by C. Dale Brittain

The Wood Nymph & The Cranky Saint by C. Dale Brittain
1993, 320pgs



I love the title to this book. My last review was supposed to be a brief one, and I ended up rambling, so I'll make this one short instead. The somewhat bumbling court magician of Yurt, Daimbert manages to get into all sorts of adventures in this one, with an enchanted grove, a consecrated toe, big ol' magic Jackalopes and more! It's a really fun book, moves quickly, and manages to tell a rousing and humorous story without ever resorting to slapstick.

Recommended!

8/10

Next Up: Free Fall by Robert Crais
