Jacobs’ friends call him the dream king. For years Jacob has always had dreams that have fascinated his friends. As usual Jacobs’ friends were waiting patiently for his bus to arrive at school. Today,they were betting what his latest dream would be about. They were so excited when his bus finally arrived. All of them ran over to him. Jacob,hurry up and tell us your latest dream. I will in 1 minute let me get in the building.

All of you are going to love this dream. It is about 2 archenemies a superhero named Night Piercer and a villain named Spike-Man. As I was falling asleep last night, a villain broke into our school He was smashing computers,busting windows, throwing desks and chairs,emptying files, ripping books and papers,and defacing the walls with permanent markers. I was determined to have him arrested. I knew when I called 911 I would have to give them a detailed description. I viewed the video a few times and I noticed 2 things. He was on the tall side. I knew the operator would need more details.

She would need something that would distinguish him from everyone else. Well Jacob,did something stand out? Not at 1st so I watched the video again. That was when I noticed he had Spike-Man written across his shirt. I paused it and then I noticed there was something strange about his hands. I backed the video up again and froze 4 pictures side by side. I got my answer he attached spikes to the end of his fingers and thumbs. The next thing I did was call 911.

I was able to give the operator a detailed description of the villain. The policemen were here within 5 minutes. You are not going to believe what happened next. What tell us! The next thing I knew SM had seriously wounded all 5 of the policemen. I ran to my locker to get my cell phone to call 911 again. Two ambulances came immediately, and the policemen were taken to the emergency room. Now, I was nervous and scared.

Suddenly, someone flew through the window. I could see he was very tall. Again, I looked at the video and froze a series of pictures. That was when I noticed he had Night Piercer written across his shirt. I magnified one of the pictures and I saw something in his left hand and there was something attached to his head. I froze another series of pictures and magnified them and I got my answer. NP had a golf club in his left hand and 2 horns attached to his head.

That is when the battle between The NP and The SM began. The first thing SM did was sucker punch NP. Well SM may have gotten the first punch but NP got the next 10 and won the fight. I started to laugh at SM. I was thrilled that NP won.

Guess what… for some reason I thought NP and Nick were the same person. I also started to wonder if SM and Chris were the same person. Chris interrupted….Jacob, why is Nick the superhero ? Chris, it is a dream don’t take it so personally. Anyway,I started to put the puzzle together. I did not have time to figure it out because NP and SM were fighting again.This time the first punch was from NP. I was excited but SM was stunned. I could just tell this was going to be a great battle. Next, NP rammed his horns into SM; SM countered it with a punch to the chest. When this happened NP’s veins popped out and he was furious. Then NP punched SM 8 times. SM was pretty messed up. Oh well! Now, NP was on a roll, he threw 5 steel balls in the air and hit them with his golf club, all 5 steel balls went through SMs’ body. SM tried to fly away but that was not happening. SM needed medical attention but I did not care. I was cheering when NP put a sudden stop on the terror SM was causing. NP had saved the day!!

Hey Jacob, can you do a quick Q and A session? Yes! Tell us about NP powers. Ok…. NP had the power to throw people up to 300ft. and can fly up to 100mph. He can also throw steel balls completely through his enemies bodies at 110mph. He is also capable of ramming his enemies with his horns and hitting people with his golf club. Wow! Don’t you think it would be cool if we could travel with NP? Yes,it would be an adventure. However, NP is a superhero in my dreams.The bell rang… I promise we can continue the q and a tomorrow and who knows maybe I will have another dream to share!

Y0!! fellow gamers/animers/book-worms . Those of you who played hellgate london and appreciated it must have come across a trilogy on Hellgate London written by Mel Odom. Fully action-packed and it will surely haunt you in dreams if you are reading it before bedtime . I was totally engulfed by the idea of being a Templar Knight (Yes the same knights of Templar, King Arthur but more technologically advanced) .

Have a look at the covers -

Exodus

Goetia

Covenant

These three novels are set 18,14 and 13 years respectively before the Game. Those of you who haven’t watched the cinematic of hellgate london game can watch it here -

The Novel starts when hellgates have opened in London and demons are overflowing in the streets of London killing every living thing they encounter. There are various underground organizations which are fighting against them. Mainly these organizations are based on the the three character classes which are shown in the game. The main classes being the Templars, Cabalists and hunters. The Templars believed in the eradication of whole demon race while Cabalists wanted to control the Demons and use them for their benefits. Simon Cross – the templar knight and Warren Schimmer – the Cabalist are two very strong characters in the novel and your loyalities are likely to shift as the novel progresses.
I was literally hooked to the novel. At a point of time I was having dreams of being a Templar and hacking the demons down every last bit of them. The technology blended with the arcane forces which can immolate the demons is a marvel to read.
For those of you who are somewhat familiar with the demon ranks and lords, you will find pretty much of those are depicted in the novel. A very interesting and fascinating plot although after reading the 3rd part you will be craving for more. The Novels have a very strong appeal, not only to the gamers but also for those who like to read sci-fi/fantasy stuff. The characters are extremely powerful and the writing style is meticulously though over and then put into this novel. You would be having frequent adrenaline boosts while reading this novel, and the best way to utilize that boost is to play the game along with the reading of novel. It would a unique experience, one of its kind.

Author: Steven Erikson

Series: Malazan book of the Fallen

Book1: Gardens of the moon

Gardens of the Moon

Either you will love it or hate it, there’s no middle ground here

Are you tired of listening to the same story line of a dark lord, an artifact and a small man turning to a hero? Hmm I was. Though being a huge fan of Tolkein, I was looking for something different, a new approach to the genre.I started reading this series a couple of months back when I was desperately searching for an author who writes excellent high fantasy.

This was written on the back cover of the book

Bled dry by interminable warfare, in fighting and bloody confrontations with Lord Anomander Rake, the Malazan empire simmers with discontent. Its legions yearn for some respite.

For Seargent WhiskeyJack and his Bridgeburners and Tattersail, surviving sorceress of the second legion, the aftermath of siege of pale should have been a time to mourn the dead but Empress Laseen’s gaze has fallen upon Darujhistan, for this ancient Citadel, last of the free cities of Genabackis, still holds out against her.

However, the empire is not alone in this great game. Sinister forces are gathering as the Gods themselves prepare to play their Hand.

And Gardens of the moon turned out to be a master piece. The story starts with a coupd’etat of an empire by the head of the assassin branch CLAW. What ensues is chaos in the noble class. There’s trouble in the empire’s borders. A group of marines marches at the head of the army to vanquish the rebellion.

The marines take the centre stage with a lot of interesting characters. Oh..there are intrigues, corrupt nobleman, warring factions, wizards, there are ascendants there are shape shifters and then there are GODS who play their games in the mortal realm. That’s hell of a lot of characters and sure you are going to fall in love with some of them and want to strangle some others.

The characters are deep, with almost real emotions, there’s a lot of funny rambling going on in the story line among the characters and frankly its interesting most of the times. The storyline itself is very rich spanning across millennia and evolves over the series. The story has an all new set of races (not the usual Orc, Elf, Dwarf, Human). War, magic and lots of action is ensured in the first volume.

This series was originally envisioned to be a RPG, however it came out as a fantasy masterpiece. If you are a fantasy lover then pick it up from the nearest stand, as i said either you will love it or hate it.

“Forgotten Realms” Is a well known term for people who have played “IceWind Dale“, “Baldur’s Gate“, “Never Winter Nights“. Dark elves’ deadly traditions and history are well described in R.A.Salvadore’s HomeLand which is book one of the Dark Elf Trilogy. The story pivots around our main character Drizzt who inspite of being a dark elf has his own principles of living life and does not approve of the dark elfs’ way. Homeland contains a vivid description of Menzoberranzan (Drow homeland) and various characters found there. My myth about the dark elves was broken after reading this novel, never had i imagined dark elves being so cruel .

I came to know about various other character in the fantasy realm plus i even took the pains to go and read the Dungeons and Dragons on Wikipedia which will be of much help while knowing about the characters.
