A review by storysgraphically
Řeka bohů III - Čaroděj by Wilbur Smith
1.0
My God, this is hilariously bad writing. How do I loathe thee? Let me count the ways.
Obi wan Taita is so ridiculously overpowered I never felt like the "Good Guys" could fail. Yes, he did do the "These are not the droids you're looking for" scene. He also managed to call up a sandstorm, fake someone's death, and communicate telepathically. Since he can also control people as well, I view the whole story as his fucking about with the world for a sense of amusement. It certainly explains away a lot to me. :D
The sex scenes were so hilariously ludicrous I'm convinced that Mr Smith has never bedded a woman, esp a virgin. Seriously, I want to hear from any woman that had three orgasms the first time she had sex. Everyone seemed to fall in love with the first person they so much as noticed; shockingly, these matches were also pretty much arranged by the Deux Ex Taita. I really got tired of reading about everyone's round buttocks. Seriously, that might be one of Amazon's unique phrases for this book with how many times he mentions it.
There are other issues also, like the ridiculous cartoony villains and the severe lack of editing, but I don't really feel like bothering.
