4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Read!,, 5 Oct 2007

By	M. A. Ramos (Florida USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Warlock in Spite of Himself (The Garland Library of Science Fiction) (Hardcover)

I love this book. I could not put it down once I started reading. I read this when I was in High School. And I wrote a paper on "Rod Gallowglass", the hero in the book, which actually won me a scholarship to college. It combines Sci-fi and fantasy in a semi-medieval planet. This is light entertainment and a good book to introduce someone into the world of Sci-fi/fantasy.

5.0 out of 5 stars not really a review, more a comment, 14 Jul 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Warlock in Spite of Himself (Warlock Series) (Paperback)

I am new to Amazon, and delighted to find this book exists. I had a copy in the late 1970's which I lost, then when I tried to replace it, not only could I not find it anywhere but no-one had heard of book or author. I began to think I had imagined it. It is reassuring to find it is real although it appears to be a recent publication. Is it a re-issue? Furthermore I also read a follow up book whose name I can't remember (something like "KOBOLD"?) but the plot doesn't sound like any of the author's books described here!?!

3.0 out of 5 stars A good book, provided you are not too critical., 3 April 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Warlock in Spite of Himself (Warlock Series) (Paperback)

I found this book to be interesting for several reasons. First of all, it deals with the Medieval element, of which I am personally very fond. Secondly, it presented this element in a new light, being that the society in question was not on Earth, but a distant planet called Gramarye. The plot was simple and straightforward, and while it was not exceptionally complex or verbose, it did leave me a bit unsatisfied in the sense that I prefer a bit more intrigue. Aside from the fact that a reasonably intelligent person could puzzle out the end of the book halfway through, there were a few twists that I did not see coming. Overall, it made for good, light entertainment. I recommend this book for younger readers and people not willing to read some of the longer series fantasy has to offer, such as The Wheel Of Time which, while excellently written, is extremely long ( >7,000 pgs and counting).
