I find Koster an acquired taste - A bit like snails (en net so grillerig) - Book in good condition. >>> Playful, skillful, Koster writes like a cross between Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Robertson Davies-- the humor of Davies and the brilliant magical realism of Marquez, and here, with a dash of Castenada--all set in the mythical South American country of Tineblas. It is the third volume of a trilogy, but all the books can be read in any order. This is about the sorcerer Mandragon, and about power, power over others and the desire to keep it. What a brilliant book. >>> Mandragon is a bawdy tale full of the blackest of humor. The Mandragon is a hermaphrodite, a creature who toys with both sexes; a magician, who reads people's minds and makes both people and objects obey his will; a seer, who travels into the future; and a prophet who brings his tribe back to his home country, Tinieblas, to cure the drought-wracked land.
