The Sword of Rhiannon (Trade Paperback)


—

The Sword of Rhiannon gets two thumbs up from me. It tells the tale of a human archaeologist on Mars who discovers the fabled sword of the dead god Rhiannon and is cast back a million years in time to when the red planet was still lush with life and covered with great seas. The result is a formulaic story (charismatic rogue, comedic rogue who dupes protagonist and then becomes his sidekick, evil beauty, and a dark god) where the tale alternates between charismatic rogue with back against the wall who finds a way to succeed and charismatic rogue with back against wall who doesn't find a way to succeed. Although formulaic, it is a formula which has been successful time and again. This story is no exception, in my opinion. As an end note, the original copyright is 1953 and so there is a distinct difference between the writing style and that of more modern science fiction/fantasy fiction authors. For me, that is one of the reasons that I purchased it.
