Evaluation Epithetical Books Lord of Darkness

Robert Silverberg is a prolific and award-winning science fiction author, of whom I've read only a handful of short stories. They didn't leave me much impressed, but when I found out he had written an historical fiction novel that was being reprinted for the first time in thirty years, I was intrigued, and I was fortunate enough to win a copy for review.The new edition of Lord of Darkness by Nonstop Press contains a great introduction by Silverberg about how his book came to be. Long story

There are many authors in the database with this name.Robert Silverberg is one of science fictions most beloved writers, and the author of such contemporary classics as Dying Inside, Downward to the Earth and Lord Valentines Castle, as well as At Winters End, also available in a Bison Books edition. He is a past president of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America and the winner of five

A strange book - indulges in sensationalism like a cheap Grand Guignol, but Silverberg went to great lengths to compose this story to mimic the style of an early 17th century author, which most authors would not even bother to attempt. The style feels very authentic; the content is mostly debauchery.

Par un tour du hasard (ou de la Providence), j'ai acheté le même jour mes deux meilleures lectures de 2018 : Terreur de Dans Simmons, et Le Seigneur des ténèbres de Robert Silverberg, deux épais pavés de 1056 pages chacun (en poche, XXL). Ces deux livres sont des récits romancés d'histoires vraies se déroulant dans des contrées lointaines, peu connues, et inhospitalières : l'expédition de sir John Franklin à la recherche du passage du Nord-Ouest entre les terres glacées de l'Arctique en 1845

A VERY different novel by SilverbergI went into this one not really knowing what to expect. It is a non-science fiction novel by grandmaster science fiction writer, and it is quite lengthy. It is loosely based on the real-life adventures of an Elizabethan English sailor and privateer who was captured and enslaved by the Portuguese, shipped to Africa and eventually forced to work for them. He was very badly treated, and he finally escaped for a time by joining a tribe of cannibals. He finally

I love this book. It's a very entertaining read with lots of sex and cannibalism, and it's also in interesting look at how a person's moral code can change to help them survive.
