Explanation Conducive To Books The Scriptlings

"Master Dung's study was silent. So silent, in fact, that one might have been able to hear a gnat passing air, if only an obligingly flatulent gnat had happened nearby." The Scriptlings is the unlikely, yet strangely charismatic lovechild you would expect if Magic and Science were to have one too many drinks during a stand-up comedy show in Vegas. In short, it follows the story of Merkin and Buggeroff, two magician apprentices in a world where magicians are capitalists, computers are quasi-magical, and goats are sometimes invisible - all under the watchful eye of a wandering tribe of monosyllabic demigods.

Judgment Containing Books The Scriptlings

I read this book a while ago, and I had 'write a review' on my todo-list ever since, but I just didnt get around to actually do it. Well, better late than never:This book achieved something that I would have thought to be completely impossible in this plane of existence: It made me *like* Clippy, the animated paperclip that was the never-helpful-but-always-annoying 'assistant' in Microsoft Office for a number of years. Only in this case, it is Stapley, a talking staple, and it resides in the

I admit I was tempted to read this book first of all because of its name. A friend of mine told me about it, and its name won my heart from the beginning. I mean, an author who names his book "The scriptlings" simply HAS to have the necessary and sufficient dose of imagination that would make me want to read it. And then came page 1. And 2. And 3. And I found myself unable to put it aside. It's funny, amusing, smart, the words are chosen perfectly for each scene, the character names are very

What an awesome book! The author says he likes Terry Pratchett and Douglas Adams and boy, does it show! Excellent humor throughout, interesting and novel magic system, deep characters, nice setting... The plot is a bit weak, but overall the book more than compensates for it. Will definitely be rereading this as I eagerly await the sequel(s).

I am not, as the first page of the book calls it, programming-inclined, which immediately made me worry that I wouldn't enjoy this book, much less "get it". I was so wrong. While I knew I was missing some golden bits of humour and cheeky references, I found it more endearing than irritating. I could practically picture the author winking at me, daring me to google it. And I did :) The story is well written, suspenseful, sexy, and hilarious. The characters are well defined and the book is

Where to start with this novel? Just saying it is a fantastic read and simply labeling as entertaining is not enough. As an avid listener and occasional reader of comedy, I can easily spot the essentials and usual jokes: Suciu has none of these. He takes irony, fallacy and satire to a new level which will make you laugh out loud and, occasionally, snort in your tea. Add to this a cast of characters, each with their own twisted psychology - being the personality disorder of Master Loo, the sexy

As an enthusiast for both comic and sci-fi/fantasy literature, I find the mixture of the two one of the best ways to keep your synapses clicking (in a fun way). The Scriptlings was definitely no exception, as it turned out to contain a captivating story sprinkled in abundance with witticism. Some passages were so surprisingly funny that I found myself placing bookmarks so I can easily find them later, a thing that I havent done with any other book until now.There were some aspects of the World

Sorin Suciu has done something that I thought damn near impossible. He has taken a very Pratchett like sense of humor and pacing and placed it quite well in a modern setting. "The Scriptlings" centers on two protagonist, each "Scriptlings" or students of magic. Merkin is a natural, born to magic the same way a tigress is born to the hunt. She is the Scriptling of Master Dung, a paranoid, plagiarizing magician who steals his scriptlings work and calls it his own, has a fould temper and is all
