Every baby's first laugh brings a new fairy into the world. The fairy and human are forever connected. The life of one is attached to the life of the other; the death of one brings about the death of the other. But there is an ancient legend that says that if a human or a fairy dies by the hand of his counterpart, he'll live forever. An evil fairy’s human has a terminal illness, and to save his own life, he must see whether the legend is true. It falls to a curious farmer and a Realmwalker to stop him from destroying the fairy worlds in order to find and slay his human. How much of their destiny can anyone control when their counterparts have such influence over their fate?
"Every baby's first laugh brings a fairy into the world" If you like that sentence, you will love this book. "Realmwalker" by Jonathan Franks is pure fantasy at it's best and is a shining example of why I like to read Fantasy books. For me, the characters were a strong element of this story, and what made it so likeable. Well written and smoothly paced, it's a perfect read for the young of heart at any age.
The moment the author used the words "fa**ot, to describe all AIDS victims, said all lung cancer victims brought it on themselves, and other bigoted $hit...I knew the book would get a 1 star from me unless that was explained before the end of the chapter. Nope. Double down plus female character gives her boss a blow job then the author wants us to feel sympathetic toward her. Nope. DNF.
I read this only last month and I already forgot the entire plot and characters in it. In fact I didn't even know I read it until I looked through my stats for this year.
I think Realmwalker does a fantastic job of pulling on my emotions. I was completely engaged and couldn't wait to start reading again each time I had to stop. The concept of the fairies being connected to the human who created them is an interesting evolution of the Peter Pan legend we all know, and the story is well written and compelling. The characters are interesting and none of them are one noted, even the "bad guys" have good moments, which makes them more interesting and more real.
