draackje 's review for:

Magician by Raymond E. Feist
2.0

After having read fantasybooks for the past years, this didn't bring anything new to the table. Perhaps if I had read this first, I'd have been enthousiastic, but now I was mostly annoyed by how oldfashioned and longdrawn (for no reason) the story is.
Tolkien has done it better with his Lord of the Rings (Frodo) and Sanderson is doing it better with his Stormlight Archive (Kaladin).
