Why read it?
1 author picked Shadowrun Legends as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love this not only for the nostalgia (I first read it in the 1990s as a teenager) but also for its themes of exploring identity in the Shadowrun urban fantasy universe. One day, Peter wakes up and transforms into a troll.
His entire life changes, and becomes a career criminal (well, that’s what you do in Shadowrun) while searching for a cure to become human again. But does he really want to go back? Even today, I still enjoy re-reading this one.
From Kell's list on hard-edged urban fantasy that explores identity.
