'The 13 &1/2 lives of Captain Bluebear' is a wonderful novel and a super fun read. Easily my favorite of the Zamonia series by Walter Mores. I highly recommend this series
Rumo is my favorite Zamonia novel, but the captain was my introduction to the series. I must have read it 5/6 times, maybe that’s why rumo is now my favorite :) You’ve read/heard it in English right? Runo and the captain have audiobooks in German which i enjoyed quite a lot, I wonder how the translations hold up.
I've read all of them except City of Dreaming Books in English. Ruma is a very close second for me followed by the Alcamasters Apprentice. I wish I could speak/read German, there are a couple of titles of his that apparently won't be translated for a reason I can't remember.
Yeah he’s playing a lot with words that’s why I was so intrigued because I’ve thought about what a pain it would be to translate or rather how I would translate certain words.
There are a lot of neologisms in his books so I guess that’s an extra barrier for translations. Probably the books gotta make $$ for the translation to be worth the effort financially.
The city of dreaming books is good as well but does not hold up to the other two imho.
Happy to hear that the books that did get translated were apparently well translated :)
My opinion in descending order
