A Lukewarm Magic novel at best
2003/11/23
形式:マスマーケット
Moons of Mirrodin falls drastically short of McDermotts previous work in Judgement, and even more drastically short of the preceding Onslaught cycle. While it deals with an interesting world it just doesn't "feel" like fantasy. For a long time Magic novels have proudly combined fantasy with scifi, but this clearly felt to much like scifi. In addition he got characteristics of the colors wrong, lacked much character development, and refused to give any sense of politics to it forgetting a long tradition of MTG politics involving many points of view that in this novel have been traded in for just Glissa's.

Totally Awesome Book
2006/11/6
形式:マスマーケット
I've played Magic the Gathering on and off several times over the years and have enjoyed the game whenever I play. I've seen the books in stores, but wasn't too sure about them, but I eventually bought this one (Moons of Mirrodin).
The story takes place on the world of Mirrodin and is centered around an elf named Glissa who discoveres that she has a very important destiny after her family is killed. She then learns that the attack on her family was apart of a sinister plot in which she too was supposed to be killed. Now she's traveling through the world of Mirrodin trying to find the person responsible for her families death. She also manages to make a couple of friends along the way to help her on her quest. However, she learns that the attempt on her life is only a small piece of a much larger puzzle that involves the entire world of Mirrodin.
This is the first MTG book that I have ever read and I absolutely loved it. The book started off rather slow in like the first 20 pages and I was really worried that this was going to be a major yawn-fest, but things quickly picked up and stayed interesting throughout the entire book. The one thing that I could see that needs improving is by getting a better editor/better editorial staff, there were quite a few misprints. Overall, this book is a definite 10/10. I'm already in the middle of the second book and it does not look to disappoint.

Looks good only in comparison to Onslaught cycle
2004/1/15
形式:マスマーケット
Coming-of-age story meets Magic mutliverse. Classic teenage-angst, rebellion against authority, headstrong belligerence used to solve every problem, youth-as-hero with establishment-as-villain . . . I could go on, but you know the plot. It could hardly be more cliche or more orthodox to Joseph Campbell's formulation of mythology. It isn't that I dislike the story, it just seems tired. "Moons of Mirrodin" could just as easily be "Star Wars" or "The Matrix" or any other post-modern formulation of the classic myth. Maybe you young turks will resonate with it.
On the plus side, McDermott seems to know how to draw out the suspense. I'm genuinely curious to see what direction the story will move in next (although McDermott is not writing the next novel, Darksteel Eye).
And some of us will read this novel and the next one for no other reason than WotC controls our minds and pocketbooks. Oh well.
