From #1 New York Times bestselling author Brandon Sanderson comes a new novella collection, including a brand new, never-been-published story.
Stephen Leeds is perfectly sane. It's his hallucinations who are mad. A genius of unrivaled aptitude, Stephen can learn any new skill, vocation, or art in a matter of hours. However, to contain all of this, his mind creates hallucinatory peopleâ??Stephen calls them aspectsâ??to hold and manifest the information. Wherever he goes, he is joined by a team of imaginary experts to give advice, interpretation, and explanation. He uses them to solve problems . . . for a price. His brain is getting a little crowded and the aspects have a tendency of taking on lives of their own. When a company hires him to recover stolen propertyâ??a camera that can allegedly take pictures of the pastâ??Stephen finds himself in an adventure crossing oceans and fighting terrorists. What he discovers may upend the foundation of three major world religionsâ??and, perhaps, give him a vital clue into the true nature of his aspects. Legion: The Many Lives of Stephen Leeds includes the novellas Legion and Legion: Skin Deep, published together for the first time, as well as a brand new Stephen Leeds novella, Lies of the Beh
El conjunt de la novel·la és curta, molt més si tenim en compte l'extensió habitual dels treballs de Sanderson, aixà que només pot fer un esbós de les habilitats del protagonista. Això fa que ens quedem desitjant-ne més, però al mateix temps s'intueix que els bastiments de l'edifici no són tan bonics com la seva façana; i que un treball gaire més llarg difÃcilment mantindria el nivell.
La cà mera de fotos del temps és un digne acompanyament en la trama que permet algunes reflexions psicològiques.
En resum, un digne entreteniment. ( )
