A review by shirezu
Spellsinger by Alan Dean Foster

4.0

I don't know why I decided to reread this but I'm glad I did. I forgot how much I liked some of Alan Dean Foster's work.

Spellsinger is the first in a series about a law student/amateur musician, nicknamed Jon-Tom, who is transported to a world of magic and talking animals that is seriously not Narnia. Unless Narnia is now inhabited by alcoholic, fornicating, foul-mouthed, violent creatures.

Jon-Tom discovers that his fledgling musical talents have now manifested themselves as magical with the ability to conjure items via song.

Unfortunately the book stops before it really gets into the meat of why Jon-Tom was transported but it's still worth reading. I look forward to finally reading the rest of the series.
