Delightful trilogy, great to share with young people

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 23 janvier 2010

This is the first of Isabel Allende's trilogy... for young people and adults. written in her great literary style it is full of vivid images, great travel information, and delightful characters ranging from an elderly anthropologist to her young teen grandson and young female from the Amazon.

I suppose somewhere in here might be the heavy religious tones of Narnia or Philip Pullman (if so I missed them). Beasts and its sequels are simply delightful imaginative tales... a bit like Hudson's,Green Mansions, seldom read today. this is nature fantasy, not technology stuff.
This would be a good family read choice: suitable for good readers of about a 6th grade reading level or a good parent read aloud book for poorer readers or a "you read a chapter, I read a chapter" bed time reading. It is a great introduction to a good writer with outstanding adults books. Once I read one I needed all three and bought all three for adults sons for Christmas. Great price at amazon buying all three together in paperback.

Deeply Disappointing

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 30 novembre 2021

I deliberately tried this book to see if Allende’s voice could elevate a YA novel. It very definitively did not. Allende repeatedly falls into the trap of telling instead of showing, which I had not felt from her before. Perhaps I missed it in Zorro, because I am so familiar with the story, but City of the Beasts was a long, dragged-out exercise in writing in cliches.

This ended up being less a book for 12-year-olds and more a book where the characters acted like 12-year-olds…or perhaps how 12-year-olds think adults act. Added to the jarring deus ex machina of things happening for no apparent reason other than to advance the story line, the translation does not seem to be up to snuff. I noticed several grammatical errors and some very poorly-used idioms.

I will likely try Allende again, but I am done with this series.

Allende is definitely my favorite author. I actually purchased "City of Beasts" by accident. While browsing through the Amazon Kindle book store on my android I saw "City of Beasts" and accidently hit the "buy" tab. I figured that if I accidently purchased an Allende book, it couldn't be a bad thing. I decided to begin reading the book and found that I could not put it down. This is usually the case with the Allende books I read. Her story and descriptions of the Amazon jungle and the people on the journey to this jungle were captivating. I don't want to give much away, but her story is beautifully written with meaningful purpose, a potent story line, and colorful characters.

Another true story by one of the worlds richest story weavers. A journey from one new world to an old one told with an energy that leaps into the the mist. This is the beginning of a trilogy that will leave you breathless, enchanted, and in search of so much more ...

THE MAGIC OF ISABEL ALLENDE

Commenté aux États-Unis 🇺🇸 le 13 décembre 2002

Achat vérifié

Although this is considered a book for young adults, I,as an old adult found it as enchanting as all her books
this book takes us into a wonderful land, and,as in all her books a spirtual adventure
if you do not like fantasy,mystery or beautiful prose, incredible descriptions and deep feelings you would not like this or any of her books.
I found the two main characters were very well developed .
I feel I know them.They had far more courage and sense then most people I really know.
Of course there are the good guys and the bad guys as in any book, but this was not a cliche'
I highly reccommend the book to young and old

A tale of wonder and magical realism in the Amazon

Commenté au Royaume-Uni 🇬🇧 le 11 février 2020

I read this many years ago and have come back to it as an adult. It is still a wonderful, mysterious, magical and gruesome tale of a boys adventure into the Amazon rainforest. Very gripping and an explosive ending. I will go on to read the next two books in the trilogy.
