Christopher Stasheff is a man who managed to say his own - infinitely original - word where it would seem that it was almost impossible to do so. That is, in the genre of ironic fantasy. In a world of tall castles in dire need of repair, beautiful princesses ruling with their last strength kingdoms falling apart at the seams, seductive and cheerful witches, monsters vile to the point of improbability and reluctant sorcerers. Sorcerers, whose only weapon in the world of “sword and magic” is humor, humor and more humor! We grew up with the saga of the incredible adventures of the illustrious Sir Rod Gallowglass. We have grown up. Adventures remain. We will never be able to grow out of these adventures!
