It's week two of April's theme on Fully-Booked, and in today's literary podcast episode, we're diving deep into the world of fools, tricksters, and - our main focus today - unreliable narrators.Last week, we examined the mythological and folkloric origins of fools and tricksters - how these figures evolved and what they symbolized. This week, we're exploring how those archetypes translate into literary devices, especially when it comes to unreliable narrators. It's a natural progression: What happens when the trickster gets to tell the story?What Makes a Narrator Unreliable?We started by teasing out a basic premise:Not all unreliable narrators are tricksters.But every trickster who narrates is, in some form, unreliable.When a trickster character narrates a story, readers are immediately on guard. Are they bending the truth, lying outright, or withholding key information? Their intent to manipulate the narrative often colors everything they say. This introduces a built-in level of mistrust, pushing readers to question what's true and what's fabricated constantly.Unreliable narrators challenge:Reader assumptionsThe line between truth and fictionMoral boundaries and societal normsAs readers, we end up reflecting on our own perceptions. Are we missing signs of dishonesty? Were there clues we should have caught earlier? This layered storytelling technique becomes especially potent in modern fiction, where readers enjoy being kept on their toes.Examples Of Trickster NarratorsArthur posed an interesting question: Do we enjoy being tricked as readers? Meaghan said yes - most of the time. She loves it when a book surprises her in a way she didn't see coming. With so much content available these days, true surprises are rare and, therefore, even more satisfying.Meaghan's recent favorite in this category?The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward.A psychological thriller with multiple points of view.Several narrators, each unreliable for different reasons.One of the narrators is a cat.Made Meaghan's top 5 list the year she read it.Types Of Trickster NarratorsArthur then introduced some types of trickster narrators, each with a corresponding example:The Charming Liar:The Gospel of Loki by Joanne M. HarrisLoki narrates Norse myths in a sarcastic, self-serving tone.The Trickster “Playing Dumb”:Pale Fire by Vladimir NabokovCharles, the narrator, presents himself as humble but co-opts the text for his own delusional storytelling.The Con Artist:The Lies of Locke Lamora by Scott LynchLocke recounts smooth, confident cons while hiding important facts.The Satirical Joker:Lamb by Christopher MooreNarrated by Biff, Jesus' childhood friend, offering a wild and irreverent version of the gospels.Meaghan also mentioned Moore's Fool, a retelling of King Lear from the jester's point of view - full of skewed perception and dark humor.Breaking Down Unreliable Narrator TypesWe moved on to categorize unreliable narrators, going beyond trickster stereotypes and into broader literary theory. Meaghan broke it down with literary references and examples:1. Naive NarratorsOften, children or individuals who don't grasp the full complexity of events.Atonement by Ian McEwan: Told from a 12-year-old's perspective.Room by Emma Donoghue: Told by a 6-year-old boy, Jack.These narrators are unreliable due to innocence or inexperience.2. Outsider NarratorsThese are characters who observe the story but aren't involved deeply enough to know all the facts.Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë: Nelly, the maid, is both observer and embellisher.Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier: The second Mrs. de Winter tries to piece together a past she wasn't part of.3. Picaros (Embellishers)Narrators who intentionally exaggerate or glorify events.A classic example is Wuthering Heights again.Trickster example: Loki, who retells stories for his own benefit.4. Mentally Unstable or Addicted NarratorsCharacters with distorted perceptions due to mental health or substance abuse.Shutter IslandGirl on the Train by Paula Hawkins: The protagonist's alcoholism clouds her judgment and memory.5. Outright LiarsCharacters who knowingly lie to the reader.Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn: Amy's diary entries mislead the reader.Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov: Humbert manipulates the reader into sympathizing with him despite his actions.Sometimes, books combine multiple types - like Lolita, which features both delusion and deception.Literary vs. Mystery NarrativesArthur and Meaghan also discussed the line between unreliable narration and general mystery storytelling. Just because a thriller keeps secrets doesn't mean its narrator is unreliable.For example:The Boyfriend by Freida McFadden uses shifting POVs and flashbacks but doesn't rely on unreliable narration.It's simply a mystery where the reader is only given pieces of the puzzle over time.The distinction matters. If the narrator isn't lying or misinterpreting events, it doesn't fall into the unreliable category.Final Thoughts and What's NextWe wrapped up with a few key reflections:Unreliable narrators are fascinating because they play with perception and challenge the reader's role in interpreting the story.These narratives are especially popular in genres like thrillers, where surprise is a major draw.There's value in understanding why a narrator is unreliable - whether due to innocence, manipulation, delusion, or deception.Next week, Meaghan and Arthur are planning to explore a specific book-to-film adaptation that features unreliable narration. They'll dive into whether the adaptation holds up and how the narrative trickery translates to the screen.

por Kevin Kulp Espadas del Serpentino en un juego de espada y brujería para ser jugado con el sistema GUMSHOE que puedes ambientar en cualquier lugar, incluso en tu propia invención. Pensando en Sanctuary de Thieves' World, Lankhmar de Fafhrd and the Gray Mouser o Camorr de Locke Lamora, sin embargo, a Emily Dresner y a mí nos gusta más el juego cuando se ambienta en una gran ciudad. Como se detalla en las reglas básicas, esa ciudad es Sumergia. Construida sobre docenas de islas unidas en el delta del río Serpentino, Sumergia se considera el centro del comercio y la civilización del mundo conocido. Entonces, ¿qué tres cosas es más importante saber? Los edificios siempre se están hundiendo La ciudad fue fundada hace casi mil años por refugiados que huían río abajo, y desde entonces la mayoría de los edificios se hunden en el suelo unos 8 centímetros al año (aunque los edificios emblemáticos se hunden mucho más despacio y los poco memorables, a veces, más deprisa). Esto significa que la mayoría de los edificios pierden su planta baja cada cincuenta años. Algunos edificios se hunden más despacio, otros más deprisa y rara vez uno cae varios pisos en una sola tarde, pero casi todos acaban desapareciendo de la vista. Nadie sabe por qué. La Iglesia afirma que es la voluntad de la diosa Denari, pero los estudiosos de la teología no creen que sea eso necesariamente. A lo largo de las más de 40 generaciones que Sumergia ha estado poblada, un gran número de edificios han desaparecido por completo. Todavía están ahí abajo en alguna parte, la mayoría de ellos. Si conoces bien la ciudad subterránea, tal vez encuentres sus ruinas. La ciudad y la diosa son una Excepto cuando adopta forma humana una vez al año, los edificios e islas de Sumergia son el cuerpo de la propia diosa Denari. Se vive literalmente dentro de ella. Como diosa del comercio y la civilización, Denari bendice el comercio que tiene lugar dentro de sus fronteras. Cada moneda intercambiada es una oración, y cada transacción un sacramento. Adórala con palabras suaves en la dulce oscuridad de un jardín durante un baile de máscaras, susurradas a una atractiva desconocida; adórala burlando a un lerdo que no conocería el mejor lugar del mundo para vivir aunque le invitara a entrar. Sin embargo, el aura de su Bendición no llega a todas partes, y la hechicera corrupción puede quemarla; una hechicería descuidada podría matar literalmente a la Diosa. No es omnipotente ni omnisciente, y sólo sabe lo que sus fieles le dicen a través de la oración. La Iglesia afirma que es Su Bendición la que entrega las profecías, pero está claro que eso no siempre es cierto; dioses menores y antiguos demonios acechan por todas partes, clamando por su propio poder mediante la creación de fieles adoradores hacia ellos. Hay estatuas por todas partes, porque las estatuas representan almas El enterramiento en Sumergia siempre ha sido un problema; no puedes enterrar a tus muertos bajo tierra cuando las inundaciones son habituales, a menos que quieras ataúdes y cadáveres flotando río abajo. Hoy en día, los pobres llevan los cadáveres a uno de los pantanos y los ricos optan por el entierro celestial en zócalos de piedra río arriba. Pero lo que ocurre con la carne no es tan importante como lo que ocurre con el alma. Mientras se haga una estatua funeraria para alguien fallecido, ya sea una diminuta estatua de arcilla o una enorme y magnífica estatua de bronce fundido, el alma del difunto tiene garantizado un lugar en el cielo de Denari. Si alguna vez se destruye esa estatua, o bien el alma se desintegra y deja de existir, o bien regresa al mundo de los espíritus como fantasma. Existe la teoría herética de que los fantasmas son en realidad los recuerdos de Denari de los que vivieron, y que cuando los sacerdotes caminan por el mundo de los espíritus lo hacen literalmente a través de los recuerdos de la Diosa. En cualquier caso, las estatuas funerarias aplacan a los espíritus inquieto...

Greta Kelly returns to Fictitious to talk about her new fantasy novel, THE QUEEN OF DAYS. We discuss its origin as a NaNoWriMo project, developing a tightly-contained fantasy setting, and maintaining emotional drama in a fast-paced heist story. THE QUEEN OF DAYS is breakneck-paced fantasy adventure coming October 24th from Harper Voyager. Order it now at: Amazon » Bookshop » Publisher Site » Some of the links above are affiliate links.

About Greta Kelly Greta K. Kelly is (probably) not a witch, death or otherwise, but she can still be summoned with offerings of too-beautiful-to-use journals and Butterfingers candy. She currently lives in Wisconsin with her husband EJ, daughters Lorelei and Nadia who are doing their level-best to take over the world. Follow Greta Kelly Website Instagram Twitter Goodreads Amazon profile » About THE QUEEN OF DAYS From Greta Kelly, the author of the Warrior Witch duology, comes The Queen of Days, an epic adventure that weaves together a flawed-but-lovable family of thieves, a battle between fallen gods, and stakes high enough to cause vertigo—perfect for fans of The Lies of Locke Lamora and Six of Crows. For Balthazar and his family of thieves, stealing a statue during the annual celebration of the god Karanis was just a good bit of fun…or a way to stick it to the governor who murdered his parents. And yeah, the small fortune in reward doesn't hurt—even if his boss also hired the mysterious Queen of Days to join the crew as “the weapon of last resort…” Whatever that means. But Bal doesn't know the ceremony isn't simply empty words and dusty tradition; it's true magic. The kind of magic that rips open a portal for the god himself. Only the idol that Karanis planned on using for a body now lies broken at the Queen of Days' feet. And half of it is missing. With the aid of a lovable brawler, a society lady turned bomb maker, a disgraced soldier, and a time-eating demon, Bal must hunt down the missing half of the statue if he has any hope of earning his money, keeping his crew alive…and perhaps even saving all of humanity. But as his journey sends him racing through the city—and across realities—he discovers that doing all this might just doom the city. The city be damned. It's time to kill a god.

Der „Mid-year book freak out“ Buchtag ist nicht tot zu kriegen - momentan ploppt er überall auf Bookstagram und Booktube auf - deswegen wollte ich ihn auch mal wieder beantworten. Das letzte Mal, dass ich den „Mid-year book freak out“ Buchtag beantwortet habe, war 2019 (Folge 152). Beim „Mid-year book freak out“ Buchtag geht es um 13 Fragen rund um das bisherige Lesejahr. Der Original-Buchtag stammt von Ely auf YouTube. „Mid-year book freak out“-Buchtag - die übersetzten Fragen Das beste Buch, das du 2023 bislang gelesen hast. Der beste Nachfolgeband, den du bislang 2023 gelesen hast. Eine Neuerscheinung, die du gerne lesen möchtest, aber noch nicht gelesen hast. Die heiß ersehnteste Neuerscheinung im zweiten Halbjahr 2023. Die größte Enttäuschung. Die größte Überraschung. Dein liebster neuer Autor (Debüt oder für dich neu). Dein neuester fiktionaler Schwarm. Deine neueste Lieblingsfigur. Ein Buch, das dich zum Weinen gebracht hat. Ein Buch, das dich glücklich gemacht hat. Das schönste Buch, das dieses Jahr bei dir eingezogen ist. Welche Bücher musst/möchtest du bis Ende des Jahres gelesen haben? Im Buchtag erwähne ich folgende Bücher: „It happened one summer“ von Tessa Bailey* „Zimt - Zwischen den Welten geküsst“ von Dagmar Bach* „Fourth Wing“ von Rebecca Yarros „Wer die Hölle kennt“ von Leigh Bardugo* „Zimt - Für immer von Magie berührt“ von Dagmar Bach* „Miss Merkel - Mord auf hoher See“ von David Safier* „The Block“ von Ben Oliver „Urlaubslesebuch 2020“ von dtv „Das neunte Haus“ von Leigh Bardugo „Das Hexenmädchen“ von Max Bentow „Ein fast perfekter Liebesroman“ von Lyssa Kay Adams „City of Ghosts“-Reihe von Victoria Schwab „Stay away from Gretchen – Eine unmögliche Liebe“ von Susanne Abel „Saga“ Nr. 10 von Brian K.

Willkommen bei einer ganz besonderen Episode von bücherreich, einem Podcast größtenteils über Bücher! Ich blicke zurück auf mein Lesejahr 2022 mit Tops und Flops, Statistiken, meinen Lesevorsätzen für 2023 und einer Auswahl an Versprechern des Jahres ganz zum Schluss der Episode. Viel Spaß! Statistiken: Die beliebteste Episode dieses Jahr war „Mein Lesejahr 2021“ mit 465 Downloads, gefolgt von „Mein Lesemonat Dezember 2021“ (367 Downloads) und „Mein Lesemonat Februar 2022“ (359). Insgesamt wurden meine Folgen 75.590 Mal angehört (2021: 61.195; also sind 14.395 Downloads (1.200/Monat) 2022 hinzugekommen). Das umfasst auch alle „alten“ Episoden und ist echt der Hammer für mich. Danke für's fleißige (nachträgliche) Hören! 101 Bücher mit insgesamt 44.818 Seiten habe ich im Lesejahr 2022 gelesen. Im Schnitt sind das 444 (!) Seiten pro Buch, 8,4 Bücher pro Monat und 123 Seiten pro Tag. Ich konnte mich im Vergleich zum Vorjahr sowohl von der Gesamtzahl der gelesenen Bücher steigern, als auch an deren Seitenzahl - ich habe nämlich viele sehr lange Bücher in Angriff genommen. Im Vergleich zu 2021 sind es 3 Bücher und 4.368 Seiten mehr und ist damit auf dem Niveau von 2020, was ein super gutes Lesejahr für mich war. Bin also happy! Noch ein paar mehr Details: Die Bücher teilen sich auf auf 47 Hörbücher (46,5 %; Vorjahr: 40 / 40,8 %), 11 E-Books (10,9 %; Vorjahr: 3 / 3,1 %) und 43 „klassische“ Bücher (42,6 %; Vorjahr: 55/ 56,1 %). 38 Bücher/Hörbücher (37,6 %; Vorjahr: 44/ 45 %) im Jahr 2022 waren Rezensionsexemplare, und sage und schreibe 34 Bücher/Hörbücher (33,7 %) habe ich in Leserunden gelesen. Fremdsprachig waren leider nur 6 der gelesenen Bücher/Hörbücher, was 6 % ausmacht. 54 % meiner gelesenen Titel waren von Autorinnen, 41 % von Autoren und 5 % gemischt. 43 % waren frisch 2022 erschienen, 9 % aus dem Jahr 2021 und 7 % aus dem Jahr 2012. Die lesereichsten Monate nach Anzahl waren mit je 11 gelesenen Titeln der März und der Mai 2022, mit 6 beendeten Büchern war der April der am wenigsten lesereichste Monat. Von der gelesenen Seitenzahl her waren der Juli (4.472), der März (4.328) und der Mai (4.274) Vorreiter. Erreichen meiner Lese-Ziele 2022: Meine SuB-Abbau-Ziele habe ich nicht nur nicht erreicht, sondern auch draufgelegt. Meine Ziele lauteten: Von 103 auf 85 ungehörte Hörbücher runterkommen. Max. fünf ungelesene Bücher auf dem SuB haben. Meine SuB-Höhen lagen am 31.12.2021 bei 20 Büchern, 103 Hörbüchern und 105 eBooks (insg.: 228). Am 31.12.2022 liegen sie bei 102 Büchern, 100 Hörbüchern und 97 eBooks (299). Das lag daran, dass ich Licht am Ende des Bücher-SuB-Tunnels gesehen habe und hemmungslos Farbschnitt-Ausgaben gekauft habe. Außerdem habe ich mich wie geplant bei den Bücherhallen (Bibliothek in Hamburg) angemeldet und daraufhin meinen Hörbuch-SuB ebenfalls sträflich vernachlässigt.  Somit habe ich 82 (!) Bücher hinzubekommen, nur 3 Hörbücher abgebaut und bei den eBooks ebenfalls abgebaut, und zwar 8.  Von den „12 Büchern für 2022“ habe ich alle gelesen oder gehört. Beim Projekt „Autor(innen) lesen“ habe ich zwei von drei geplanten AutorInnen geschafft: Sowohl bei Jay Kristoff als auch bei Fredrik Backman bin ich nun völlig up to date, was ihre (deutschen) Veröffentlichungen anbelangt. Und das hat richtig Spaß gemacht! Von den Reihen, die ich 2022 beenden/weiterlesen möchte, habe ich mir den Großteil auf Wiedervorlage für 2023 gesetzt. Bis auf Cassandra Clares „City of...“-Reihe bin ich nirgendwo großartig vorangekommen. Das wiederum lag sicher großteils an der Leserunde dazu, die sich auch auf weitere Buchreihen innerhalb dieses Schattenjäger-Universums ausgeweitet hat. Die Bücher selbst fand ich leider nicht so toll, auch wenn mich der Humor positiv überrascht hat.  Die Leserunden haben alle sehr gut geklappt - so gut, dass sie mir mittlerweile in Fleisch und Blut übergegangen sind und ich sie mir nicht als explizites Lesevorhaben für 2023 setzen werde. Meine Lesevorsätze 2023: Folgende Ziele setze ich mir für 2023: SuB-Abbau: Mit dem hohen Bücher-SuB komme ich nicht gut zurecht (und habe auch nicht genug Platz im Regal!). Leider sind auch schon wieder etliche Titel vorbestellt, und auch ein monatliches Farbschnitt-Abo ist aktuell aktiv. Da hilft nur: Ganz viel weglesen und darüber hinaus nicht viel Neues kaufen. Bei den Büchern möchte ich bis Ende des Jahres auf max. 75 ungelesene Bücher kommen. Für die Hörbücher bleibe ich bei meinem letztjährigen Ziel, auf 85 ungehörte Hörbücher zu reduzieren. SuB-Senioren: Ich habe fünf haptische Bücher auf dem SuB, die ich seit (gefühlt) zehn Jahren mit mir herumschleppe. Diese Bücher möchte ich 2023 lesen - oder aussortieren. Am liebsten schon im ersten Halbjahr 2023, aber man muss ja nicht über-ambitioniert sein... Das sind: „The lies of Locke Lamora“ von Scott Lynch „Operation Red Sparrow“ von Jason Matthews „Die Monster von Templeton“ von Lauren Groff „Die Stunde, in der ich zu glauben begann“ von Wally Lamb „Die Zwillinge“ von Tessa deLoo Fortführung Projekt „Autor(innen) lesen“:  Das Projekt hat mir super viel Spaß gemacht! Dieses Jahr möchte ich die Autorin, die 2022 leider hinten über gefallen ist, nun wirklich lesen: Anne Freytag. Da dieses Projekt ein wenig dem SuB-Abbau entgegenwirkt (ich besitze nur ihr neuestes Buch), werde ich es für 2023 bei einer Autorin belassen, und dann 2024 neu schauen, ob ich mich mal an z.B. Brandon Sanderson, Riley Sager oder Anabelle Stehl heranwage. Reihen, die ich 2023 beenden/weiterlesen möchte:  „Die sieben Schwestern“ von Lucinda Riley, letzter Band „Outlander“ von Diana Gabaldon, ab Band 8 „Harry Hole“ von Jo Nesbo, ab Band 1 (Band 3 bereits gelesen) „The Diviners“ von Libba Bray, ab Band 2 „David Hunter“ von Simon Beckett, ab Band 2 „The secret book club“ von Lyssa Kay Adams, ab Band 1 „The Inheritance Games“ von Jennifer Lynn Barnes, ab Band 1 „Zeitenzauber“ von Eva Völler, ab Band 1 „The Loop“ von Ben Oliver, ab Band 1 „Wayfarers“ von Becky Chambers, ab Band 1 „Red Rising“ von Pierce Brown, ab Band 1 „The Wolves of Mercy Falls“ von Maggie Stiefvater, ab Band 1 Bei den privaten SuB-Abbau-Challenges, die ich im Lesegarten mitbetreue, werde ich 2023 bei der Jahreschallenge mitmachen (die betrifft dieses Jahr Länder/Regionen; für mich als Fantasyleserin schon schwierig genug). Bei den Monatschallenges werde ich eher aussetzen, um neben Leserunden, Jahreschallenge, Reziexemplaren und meinen Lesezielen 2023 flexibel genug zu bleiben, auch ein Stück weit nach Lust und Laune zu lesen.

The dragons have covered aspects of worldbuilding in previous episodes, but not much attention has ever been given to the aspect of sport in writing SFF. Not just by this podcast but in general, so this week Jules and Madeleine take a look at sport in speculative fiction. Sport is an important part of cultural history and national identity. It can form a major if indirect part of diplomacy between neighbouring countries or nations at odds. The added benefit in speculative fiction is that you are not bound by the mundane - you can have magical sports and spaceship races. So why don't more authors incorporate it? And who has done so and done it well? On the slab this week: The Hunger Games, The Lies of Locke Lamora, The Queen's Gambit, Fence (S.C, Pacat) and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Guess who's back? Back again! That's right. It's The Wheel of Time. We are still Shaitan on The Wheel of Time, BUT we are finally making OWWR way to the last battle. Today we cover the first half of The Gathering Storm by Robert Jordan AND Brando Sando. We had a lot of thoughts on the book, the characters, and how the tone felt just...different. "But most of the criticisms are objectively funny."  We also catch you up on all of the things that we have been reading and watching the past month or so (and friends, it was a lot of things). Media Mentions:The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan and Brandon SandersonThe Wheel of Time series---Amazon Prime VideoBlackish---HuluGrownish---HuluAbbott Elementary---HuluThe Princess Trap by Talia HibbertThe UnHoneymooners by Christina LaurenBridgerton---NetflixWings of Ebony by J.

Who ever said tropes were a bad thing? Pashawww I say! Join Evan and Chad for a discussion on their favorite time-tested literary tropes. Evan wishes he could go to magic school and Chad idolizes a classic hero of the downtrodden. Do you share some favorite bookish cliches with our hosts? Find out on another exciting episode of Book Reviews Kill! 

Most readers of SFF and speculative fiction are familiar with the 'call to arms' or inciting incident. That familiarity extends to the variety of ways a protagonist or side character reacts to the event. While bravery, calculation or a sense of adventure are more common, there is also something engaging about the unabashedly cowardly character. Going a step beyond being merely a reluctant hero, cowardly characters generally start with no desire to engage with the unfolding adventure at all. So what is it about these characters - both the positive and the negative - which captures the imagination? This week Jules and Madeleine take a look at various permutations of the archetype and theorise why. On the slab this week - The Princess Bride, Howl's Moving Castle, The Lies of Locke Lamora and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic
