Mongoliad Vol.3 – Um Final Épico e Sangrento digno dos Khans! #nitroblog

No terceiro volume da saga Mongoliad, as diversas narrativas paralelas chegam à suas conclusões, e muito, mas muito sangue.

The unfortunate antique-sword-fan-hive-mind composed of otherwise interesting people like Stephenson and Eagan and Bear is a terrifying funhouse-mirror version of the Sterling-Gibson-Shirley-Rucker Cheap Truth dynamic, and it makes me think twice about banging good SF authors together to see what comes out. I fear that those guys will end up producing only masturbatory historically-inaccurate swordplay narratives for decades and that history will remember the period 2010-2030 as the time when the broadsword replaced the rocket ship as bad SF's phallic icon.

Mongoliad takes you on a journey with the a crusade starting in medieval Poland as the Mongolian hordes get ready to wipe Europe and Christianity out.  This awesomely written book by some of my favorite authors including Neil Stephenson brings a completely new perspective to these troubled times.
