Críticas
With action aplenty, this sf/fantasy mash-up is a thrilling, genre-defying roller coaster ride." - Library Journal As publicist and events manager for England's legendary Forbidden Planet, debut author Ware has a deep knowledge of science fiction and fantasy, and she hurls it all into this engrossing but sometimes derivative mix of high-tech street fighting and epic quest. In a dystopian future London, the population has been systematically reduced to plugged-in cogs, blissed out on Pilgrim Inc.'s brand of SSRI. Enter Ecko, a wickedly entertaining antihero. He's a genetically and mechanically modified superhuman sociopath with a host of unusual abilities. On a mission for a vaguely outlined rebellion, Ecko leaps from a building and wakes up in a teleporting tavern in a medieval fantasy realm, where he reluctantly joins forces with Roderick the Bard to do battle with the elementalist Maugrim and prevent the resuscitation of a demon. Is this all a "Virtual Rorschach" test designed by Ecko's creator to bring him into line? Several scenes in which Ecko is not present hint otherwise. The page-turning narrative leads to a cliffhanger ending that bodes well for planned sequels. (June) - Publishers Weekly "An incredible read, with completely unexpected twists and turns." - Geek Syndicate "Ingenius...The story itself is engaging and totally unique, a plot that pushes the boundaries not for the sake of it but clearly to offer something different." - SF Book "It s like The Matrix meets Game of Thrones, and it s immense fun... a novel that reads like the work of a seasoned professional but boasts a first timer's vigour." - Financial Times "Dani Ware s debut novel is like no fantasy - or indeed sci-fi - epic you ve ever read before." - SFX Magazine "An epic page turner with an ending that will leave your crying out for more." - The Tattooed Book 'An incredible debut' - SF Site 'Staggeringly impressive in both its richness and detail' - Alternative Magazine Online 'Ware writes with an eloquence that is not often encountered in genre fiction' - BFS 'An incredible, confident debut' - Dave Brendon's Weblog "With fast and furious action and more than a smattering of sex, violence, gore and swearing this is the kind of novel where you hang onto your seat, and enjoy the ride." - High Fantasy Addict "Danie Ware's Ecko Rising is distinctive and entertaining. Ecko is a creative and engaging anti-hero and his mashed-up cyberpunk and fantasy world holds the promise of an exciting new series." - Mind of the Geek "Ecko Rising is truly the epitome of the expression, "a little something for everyone." It has science fiction roots, a fantasy trunk, some romance branches, and a sprinkling of humor leaves to round things out. After finishing the book, I'm still a little dumbfounded as to how Ware managed to create two worlds so vivid and so different, and put them in the same story." - Pop Culture Nexus "There's nothing I love more than finding a book that pushes the boundaries, especially when it gives new meaning to the word "imagination," and Ecko Rising is one of those books." - Killer Aphrodite "trust me, you're gonna want to grab a copy." - My Bookish Ways "Ecko Rising is fast-paced, creative, and has enough going on to capture just about anyone's interest. This reader is on board for round two." - Paper Droids "Ecko Rising is the debut novel of Danie Ware but reads more like that of a veteran storyteller with engaging characters and a polished storyline." - Dread Central "Hollywood should take a look at this book, this would make a great sci-fi fantasy movie." - Retrenders 'Ecko is one of the most fascinating characters in scifi literature' - Wear Pink Wednesdays "The sci-fi debut of the year begins like a cyberpunk thriller, before performing a sharp U-turn to become a rollicking high-fantasy adventure. Ware writes fearlessly and with great self-assurance, and her hero Ecko, cybernetically augmented but as crude and cynical as they come, is a magnificent creation." - Financial Times (London) "If you're looking for some great genre-bending reading, I can't recommend Ecko Rising by Danie Ware enough. It seamlessly blends traditional cyberpunk story elements with elements of fantasy and leaves you wanting more!" - Blogcritics "ECKO RISING is a definite win for me and I highly recommend giving it a look." "ECKO RISING is written very well and flows like a roaring river. Ware has a subtle writing style that lulls the reader into a false sense of security but then whips them straight into the story without warning. This allows for complete immersion into Ecko's world(s) and therefore an enjoyable reading experience." - Shattered Ravings
Reseña del editor
Ecko: Rising is a unique genre-bending fantasy - sci-fi epic following a savage, gleefully cynical anti-hero. After awakening in a dimension-jumping inn to find himself immersed in his own sardonic fantasy world, Ecko strives to conquer his deepest fears and save the world from extinction.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
