Not a chapter will come to pass without someone crying and despairing over the silliest things or without a completely random scene of oppression at the expenses of an equally random previously-unseen character. Overreactions like this one are constant because Tigana strives SO hard to be emotional, ALWAYS. Not to mention that the war that destroyed Tigana has been over for decades. He didn't even know it existed 5 minutes ago! When Devin, a famous singer, learns he's a descendant of a Tiganian (?) he immediately abandons his career to swear eternal vengeance against Brandin and spend the rest of his life despairing on "Oh how horrible" a fate his native country had. This is a pitiful excuse to set the plot in motion but every time it's mentioned every character in the scene will start crying like a baby at the atrocity. Thousands of deaths? Who cares!! But don't you dare touch the name of our city! In fact, the protagonists want revenge simply because Brandin erased the name of the city from the memories of everyone. This book, in short, tells about the vengeful crusade of a group of refugees from the once-great city of Tigana, destroyed years before by the mage Brandin.įor starters, nobody cares about the destruction of Tigana. So if you stumble upon it, give it a try, chances are you'll find it awesome. I hated this book, but I'm an oddity in fact, virtually every other human being seems to love it unconditionally.
