Loading... Hunters' Hauntby Dave Duncan
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) JanetNoRules | Sep 17, 2018 |   ) macha | Aug 3, 2009 | Omar or Homer is literally trying to save his life by telling tales of the past. The others with him want his blood for various reasons, the trick is that he tells a story for every story told by one of the other people there, these stories are all interwoven and there's an implication that Omar is very long-lived and has seen many of these situations. Enjoyable but not spectacular. ( ) wyvernfriend | Sep 9, 2006 | no reviews | add a review
Belongs to SeriesThe Omar Books (book 2)
First seen in The Reaver Road--"a fun, very readable fantasy with agreeable, intelligent characters"--Omar the Storyteller returns (Metaphorosis Reviews). Omar often gets into trouble as a result of his role as the world's greatest storyteller. The wrong tale told at the wrong time to the wrong audience could prove fatal. When a slighted innkeeper threatens to kill Omar by tossing him out into the vicious storm that rages just outside the door, Omar has the chance to redeem himself by using his gift. If he can top the most outrageous tales invents by the inn's guests, he may get away with his neck intact. Soon, Omar not only tells a series of stories that would astonish the most gifted bard, but also corrects the errors of the others and weaves everything together into one absolutely compelling tale of adventure.
