Władcy smoków

by: Jack Vance (author)

Naganiacze, Zbrojmistrze, Pancerni, Giganci — niegdyś byli ludźmi. Później ich struktura genetyczna została wypaczona i przekształcona, co uczyniło z nich rasę niewolnych wojowników. Megiery, Szatany, Długorodzy Mordercy, Błękitne Horrory — przed tysiącami pokoleń należeli do Prymatów, rasy inteligentnych gadów, która niemal doszczętnie wyniszczyła ludzkość. Teraz, na zapomnianym świecie, ludzie i jaszczury spotykają się w ostatecznym boju, opisanym przez mistrza współczesnej fantasy i science fiction.

I'd say it's a 3.5 rather than a 3, but I round down because it could have been better.Vance starts with an interesting idea (view spoiler) and introduces it in an understated way. But the result lacks the ...

text The Dragon Masters

I am slowly making my way through McGee's encyclopedic On Food and Cooking, which is teaching me all sorts of fascinating and surprising things.
