Raymond E. Feist is a successful author. And yet, I would argue that he doesn’t get nearly as much love as he deserves, especially in an age that venerates the likes of George R. R. Martin and Brandon Sanderson.
Not to say that those authors don’t deserve their popularity. Rather, Feist should be named among them as one of the greatest fantasy authors in history.
I was incredibly young when I read the first Magician trilogy, and it consumed me for so many months. After reading modern fantasy throughout my teenage years, I was hesitant to return to the Riftwar Saga. Fiction written in the 80s and 90s rarely holds up, and I did not want to taint my nostalgic memories of that original trilogy.
But then I found ‘Apprentice’ in a local thrift store, and I couldn’t help myself. I bought it. You know what? It is every bit as dated as I remember. The narrative is a little clunky, almost like Feist wrote several separate stories that he eventually combined into a single novel.
The prose sounds like they came out of the 80s. And yet, I loved it. If anything, the fact that the novel was so dated made it even more interesting because the tone was so refreshing. Pug and Thomas were every bit as charming as I remember. This is one author I cannot wait to introduce to my future children.
Raymond E. Feist was the author of one of the very first fantasy books I ever picked up and it really made me fall in love with the genre. The Riftwar Saga isn’t a super easy read but I would absolutely recommend it to anyone who likes the fantasy genre. Feist really knows how to make you fall in love with a character and give them some great arcs that you don’t see coming from a mile away (like most books). I’m still making my way through his world but looking forward to picking up my next book of his!
