Alexis Flamand

Alexis Flamand, extraterrestre en visite sur notre planète, a pris forme humaine en 1970 mais s’est finalement retrouvé coincé dans son corps d’emprunt. Pour gagner sa vie, il a commencé par organiser un trafic d’organes de caniches nains, puis une secte autour du tire-bouchon avec adoration de la Grande Visseuse. Se rendant compte de ses erreurs, imputables à sa méconnaissance de notre culture, il change son fusil d’épaule et entreprend des études de biologie. Hélas, après quelques années, les dissections de rats ne lui apportent plus guère qu’une satisfaction modérée. Il s’oriente alors vers l’enseignement, puis vers la littérature. Il écrit des romans réalistes sur sa galaxie, que les humains considèrent comme des récits imaginaires de S

Robin Hobb

** I am shocked to find that some people think a 2 star 'I liked it' rating is a bad rating. What? I liked it. I LIKED it! That means I read the whole thing, to the last page, in spite of my life raining comets on me. It's a good book that survives the reading process with me. If a book is so-so, it ends up under the bed somewhere, or maybe under a stinky judo bag in the back of the van. So a 2 star from me means,yes, I liked the book, and I'd loan it to a friend and it went everywhere in my jacket pocket or purse until I finished it. A 3 star means that I've ignored friends to finish it and my sink is full of dirty dishes. A 4 star means I'm probably in trouble with my editor for missing a deadline because I was reading this book. But I wa
