A story of life, death, love lost and meaning found in Schugara and beyond.
Why read it?
1 author picked A Place Called Schugara as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I write character-driven fiction and it is always the people and their relationships that most engage me in any story. I found the characters here complex, real, engaging, and, in some instances, foul specimens demonstrating that existence for survival alone is an inadequate way of life for any person. These are fully developed people, though they are mostly unusual individuals; archetypes rather than stereotypes. The people hooked me from the start. I cared what happened to these adventurers. I also cared that those who deserved retribution would receive it.
From Stuart's list on character-driven novels.
