The Thousandfold Thought

The Prince of Nothing, Book Three

De: R. Scott Bakker

Narrado por: David DeVries

The Darkness that Comes Before, R. Scott Bakker's magnificent debut, drew thunderous acclaim from reviewers and fellow fantasy authors. Listeners were invited into a darkly threatening, thrillingly imaginative universe as fully realized as that of any in modern fantasy and introduced to one of the genre's great characters: the powerful warrior-philosopher Anasrimbor Kelhus, on whom the fate of a violently apocalyptic Holy War rests. Bakker's follow-up to The Darkness that Comes Before, The Warrior Prophet enticed readers further into the richly imagined world of myth, violence, and sorcery. The startling and far-reaching answers to these questions are brought into thrilling focus in The Thousandfold Thought, the conclusion to The Prince of Nothing trilogy.

Casting into question all the action that has taken place before, twisting listeners' intuitions in unforeseen directions, and remolding the fantasy genre to broaden the scope of intricacy and meaning, R. Scott Bakker has once again written a fantasy novel that defies all expectations and rewards the listener with an experience unlike any to be had in the canon of fantasy literature.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Prince of Nothing trilogy is a work of unforgettable power." ( Publishers Weekly)

Ending was forced

I understand that it is impossible to just "walk away" from a story that has been thousands of pages in the making. I just felt like this was forced. The ending left me frustrated instead of satisfied. Very interesting and fun for the most part, but certainly not one I would do again.

Incredible Culmination

How Bakker concocted this trilogy is beyond me, but it blew my mind.

Fully satisfied with the conclusion, while also left wanting for the follow-up series, The Thousandfold Thought delivers everything I’d hoped The Prince of Nothing would.

Greatest fantasy series ever written. The only other series that can compare with this level of perfection is ASOIAF.

Awesome conclusion to an amazing trilogy.

Great trilogy, great author, fantastic narration. Love it. It isn't an easy read if that's what you're looking for but it certainly blew my mind.

Loved this series!!

Amazing in so many ways, can’t wait to read the next trilogy. My only (extremely minor) complaint is that I could have gone for like a 1/3 of the extremely descriptive sex scenes. Seemed a bit much.

Best “grim dark” series by far

Epic, pitiless, beautiful and horrifying. Probably horrifying the most of all. Only Erikson can achieve this level of world building, uniqueness and detail but Bakker is right there with him. Beautifully performed as well. 6 stars
