• "¿Eres un cuentacuentos, Thomas Covenant?"
  Absurdamente respondió: "Lo fui, una vez".
  "¿Y lo dejaste? Ah, esa es una historia tan triste en tres palabras como cualquiera que pudieras haberme contado. Pero una vida sin historias es como un mar sin sal. ¿Cómo vives?"
  "Vivo.
  "¿Otro?" Volvió el Seguidor de la Espuma. "En dos palabras, una historia más triste que la primera. No digas más - con una palabra me harás llorar".

• Are you a person—with volition and maybe some stubbornness and at least the capacity if not the actual determination to do something surprising—or are you a tool? A tool just serves its user. It’s only as good as the skill of its user, and it’s not good for anything else. So if you want to accomplish something special—something more than you can do for yourself—you can’t use a tool. You have to use a person and hope the surprises will work in your favor. You have to use something that’s free to not be what you had in mind.

• Gradually, the night stumbled as if stunned and wandering aimlessly into an overcast day -- limped through the wilderland of transition as though there were no knowing where the waste of darkness ended and the ashes of light began. The low clouds seemed full of grief -- tense and uneasy with accumulated woe -- and yet affectless, unable to rain, as if the air clenched itself too hard for tears. And through the dawn, Atiaran and Covenant moved heavily, unevenly, like pieces of a broken lament.

• Steven Erikson es un escritor extraordinario. Leí Los jardines de la luna con gran placer. Y ahora que lo he leído, me costaría decidir qué me ha gustado más: el rico y ominosamente mágico mundo de Malaz y Genabackis; el amplio elenco de simpáticos personajes; o la forma en que la historia se acumula hasta un clímax que golpea como una ametralladora. Mi consejo a cualquiera que me escuche es que se deleite con Gardens of the Moon. Y mi consejo totalmente egoísta a Steven Erikson es que escriba más rápido.

• However you look at it, in these books "power" tends to be an expression of the essential nature of the person or being whose power it is. On those occasions when we've seen Lord Foul act directly, he seems to exert the withering force of pure scorn. IMHO, that's pretty intense.

• La historia de Terisa y Geraden empezó como una fábula. Ella era una princesa en una alta torre. Él era un héroe que venía a rescatarla. Ella era la única hija de la riqueza y el poder. Él era el séptimo hijo del señor del séptimo Care. Ella era hermosa, desde el cabello castaño que coronaba su cabeza hasta la punta de sus blancos dedos. Él era apuesto y valiente. Ella estaba prisionera de un encantamiento. Él era un intrépido destructor de encantamientos. Como en todas las fábulas, estaban hechos el uno para el otro.
