Des news de Terry Brooks

Message par jerome » ven. nov. 23, 2007 9:32 am

Terry Brooks vient de sortir en anglais Armageddon’s Children et the Elves of Cintra

Il est en interview sur le blog d'Interzone.

Petit extrait :

"How would you describe your new books, Armageddon’s Children and the Elves of Cintra, to someone who hasn’t read a Terry Brooks title?

Well, they’re a departure from my other works; they’re a post-apocalyptic yarn, a reflection of my current mental state I suppose. I went into those books as a jump from doing The Word and the Void, which ended with no complete resolution and a lot of loose ends, and the theory was that when I went back in I would go back into dreams of the Knights of the Word - to what the future would be like if everything went down the drain in the present, which of course it has.

Then I began thinking about tying together how much of what I was thinking about resembled the pre-world of Shannara and the Great Wars era, and of course I’ve been contacted for years from readers who wanted to know if I would ever write about that period. I talked to my editor about whether this was a good idea or not and she got excited about it, so I gave it a shot and wrote Armageddon’s Children.

I was happy enough with the result and here I am writing about a world eighty years in the future where civilisation has suffered a series of calamities – some natural, some man made – which have piggybacked one on top of another. The remnants of the human race are struggling to find a way to survive and we are tracking a small proportion of those to see whether or not they are able to succeed.

pendant un moment j'ai été heureux, j'ai cru que jérome allait nous annoncer le départ en retraite du monsieur...et puis j'ai vu la couverture.
