Astra and Flondrix

Rating:
Summary: Cullen's Other Novels
Review: I have just finished re reading Astra and Flondrix, it's just as funny, mad, inventive as it was 25 years ago.
But......Seamus Cullen wrote two other books at least
(1)called: A Noose of Light (ISBN 0-7088-8178-5)
(2)called: The Sultan's Turret (ISBN 0-7088-8179-3)
A kind of two parter.
Have fun finding them

Summary: Astra and Flondrix
Review: I read this book years ago when a friend loaned it to me. I've been searching for a copy of it for years. It is a wonderful fairy tale complete with elves, dwarfs, nymphs, kings and sex. It was so funny and so well written. I especially like the mode of getting about used by the male dwarves. What a kick! I wish the author had written more books. I love his sense of humour and his flowing prose. This is a great tale and should be reprinted.

Review: I'm sure that there's a world where in 100 years, students writing scholarly dissertations about fantasy novels will come across this book and address it as a fine example of subgenre. At that point, it may gain cult status, who knows?

I had to give this book one extra star for sheer creativity-- whether it was the farm-wife who was (*ahem*) extra-close to her sheep or whether it was the cruddy curse of the human king, Cullen clearly doesn't have a problem with his imagination.

The plot was tedious, nothing more than an excuse to feature the various anatomical ways that elves, dwarves, deer, sheep, humans, and chickens (this is not an exaggeration) can interact. Even the erotica had very little virtue except a clearly vivid imagination behind it.

Champions of the very strange may get something out of this.
