About book Geth And The Return Of The Lithens (2011)
I love, love, LOVE all of Obert Skye's books. I love his ridiculous, colorful writing. I love his blurbs to the reader at the beginning of every chapter. My newest favorite quote is from this book, "I hate to mention it, but bad things happen to people occasionally-awful things that cause people to end up lonely or hurt or sad-or sometimes even dead. Maybe something awful has happened to you. I'm sorry about that, and if we were having an actual conversation I might even convince you of my empathy. I'd like to imagine a world where there is nothing but happiness and purring, but I'm not sure there'd be much to cheer about if every day were nothing but sunshine and success. I suppose you can never know the good if you've never been visited by the bad."Seriously, Obert you are my hero. One day we will meet in person, I will shake your hand, gain wisdom from your presence and then force you to autograph every one of your books for ME. *Not done reading yet, but I am giving Skye FULL PROPS for slipping in one of my favorite phrases, "Boy Howdy", into his book - A good King Kong reference too*Finished! Skye breaks the 4th wall quite frequently, but is VERY good at doing so. I enjoy his interjections at the beginning of each chapter just as much as I enjoy the main storyline its self.The story starts on the heels of Ruins of Alder. You can guess what's going to ensue just by being told that Clover and Geth are bored and in need of some excitement. Let's see what happens: Chased by nasty monsters, check. Run into a pretty girl, check. Knocked unconscious several times, check. Kidnapped and taken...you guessed it...BEYOND FOO. New characters, new monsters, and a new world. Pretty exciting stuff. For those of you who know me, Skye writes they way I would, if I had any discipline or talent or great ideas. Otherwise, the similarities are astonishing.Read the Leven Thumps series first or be prepared for LOTS of spoilers. This follows that series chronologically.
