I picked this one up during the summer for a holiday read, but have only just got around to reading it now.

And, I have to say, I was really impressed with it.

Telling the story of Tau Solarin, this probably falls somewhere between high fantasy (yes, there are dragons but no elves or dwarves or such like) and heroic fantasy (none of the characters are really what you would call conventional heroes!), but nor is it what I would call Dark fantasy (you can understand why they are doing what they are doing, with none of the characters really anti-heroes).

I'm looking forward to finding out more about the background, culture, beliefs and (in general) the world in future instalments: just what was The Cull, for instance, and why did the Omehi have to flee from it?

At that, how did the caste system come about? Will it be overthrown ... ?

Wonderfully wacky watchable film
I love this director, the same one who created Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. It's equally wacky, the topic slightly fantasy based just like in ESOFSM. The characters are loveable and the dream sequences are wondrous to behold.

I love fantasy and the Harry Potter feel but I thought the first one was better. I also felt the title should be different, grindelwald only committed one crime and was it REALLY a crime? (1 more)
The acting I thought was great. I love Johnny Depp.
