Los personajes secundarios también fueron un disfrute, divertidos, románticos y los malos bien malos malos. 😎 He took one of the offerings, little father,” the youth said. “The incantation. He didn’t care for the food or drink.” The youth from before hid behind her, peeking out at me. He seemed unremarkable—a shorter fellow with similar blonde curls and a slight build. Upon closer inspection, he looked younger than I’d assumed. Perhaps just fifteen or sixteen. I read the words over three times, then looked into the distance at those old-timey buildings again. The truth began to settle on me. I wasn’t a cosplayer. I was visiting some kind of theme park. Was that…more or less nerdy?

No need to act so amazed,” she said, eyes forward as we walked up to the front of the manor, where the young guard from before stood at the door with axe and shield. Anachronistic. Although the main character comes from 100 years in our future, with amazing technological developments, the future has seen zero cultural or social development. Every real-world reference and social structure comes from boring old now. References in our time from 1920 are rare and obscure, but according to this book social evolution froze in 2020. Para ser un Sanderson es bastante nefasto. Es tan nefasto que normalmente aunque saque el hacha, muestro cierto respeto que se debe. Pero este libro me ha parecido una de las mayores pérdidas de tiempo desde que empecé a leer.

However, my throbbing skull and nose indicated I hadn’t done that. I frowned at the menu, which listed that I did have skull platings and chest platings—but those were listed as non-functional. What the hell? Why not? Es cierto que siempre que Sanderson saca un libro las expectativas estan por las nubes y más con la publicación de los Proyectos Secretos. La Guía del Mago Frugal es el segundo de estos proyectos y el único no ambientado en el Cosmere. It was worth a try,” I said. “Very well. I shall require a berry that has never seen the sun, two stones polished by a frog, and one leaf of nightshade—in return I shall leave your quaint village with a blessing and return to my people.” It was strange to feel that sudden sense of loss, that sudden pain, for Jen. A person whose face I couldn’t remember. But it was there, a knot inside of me—no, like a scream inside of me, suddenly audible, now that the door had been opened. Un hombre despierta en medio de un claro, con jeans y una capa. No recuerda cómo llegó ahí, quién es, su nombre ni nada sobre sí mismo. Sin embargo, no tarda en entender que está en una dimensión alterna que replica el Medioevo y que hay unas personas buscándolo.

Anyway, those three things combined into this story. While Secret Project #1 has a fairy-tale tone, I intend this one (when in the protagonist’s viewpoint) to be more action/adventure. The Frugal Wizard inserts are comedic, but the main text is not a comedy, save for the occasional sarcastic or amusing comment by the narrator.

Many of these titles take place in Sanderson’s Cosmere, the same overarching universe that contains The Stormlight Archive and Mistborn series of epics. Let’s learn more. Except, they hadn’t described me. But she’d said our accents were similar? Hell, I really needed more information. I was unarmed and confused. If I were to saunter in, explain that I technically owned all of this, and ask them to kindly obey me…I suspected they’d saunter over to me, explain that the sword they’d rammed into my gut didn’t care what I claimed, and ask me to kindly avoid bleeding on the rug.”

Special thanks to my Patrons on Patreon for giving me extra support towards my passion for reading and reviewing! Este libro no forma parte del Cosmere (universo literario del autor), es decir, puede leerse de manera independiente. Si bien es de mis libros favoritos No Cosmere no lo recomiendo como libro para comenzar a leer a Brandon, tiene un estilo muy único, nuevo y bastante poco convencional. Normalmente me ciño a la cita de mi estimado Xabi. Que para gustos, los colores, los culos y las flores. Pero en este caso con toda honestidad, no sé qué leches le ven. A man awakes in a clearing in what appears to be medieval England with no memory of who he is, where he came from, or why he is there. Chased by a group from his own time, his sole hope for survival lies in regaining his missing memories, making allies among the locals, and perhaps even trusting in their superstitious boasts. His only help from the “real world” should have been a guidebook entitled The Frugal Wizard’s Handbook for Surviving Medieval England, except his copy exploded during transit. The few fragments he managed to save provide clues to his situation, but can he figure them out in time to survive?La guía del mago frugal para sobrevivir en la Inglaterra del medioevo es el segundo proyecto secreto de Brandon Sanderson, los libros que escribió durante la pandemia y decidió publicar todos juntos dos años después. Well, come along then,” she said. “We’d best go talk to Lord Ealstan before your friends end up saying something that ruins our plan.”

Cut me free,” I said in my most intimidating voice, “and apologize for the treatment I’ve suffered.”

Chapter One

Isn’t it incredible, her voice drifted into my mind, to think? Generations upon generations—thousands upon thousands of years—worth of people have lived, but they’re all the same as us. Teleport someone from Ancient Egypt to the modern era, and they’d be indistinguishable. Same passions. Same cleverness. Same biases, if about different things. In this six-part audio series, Christina Walsh is determined to change that. After struggling with the loss of her father, she sets out on a journey to bring the justice that has eluded her to the families of other victims. And she starts with a particularly strange case. The murder of world-renowned violinist Leona McPherson who mysteriously disappeared years ago after a concert at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. As Christina digs deeper, the story gets stranger. Leona was a prodigy, someone too good to be forgotten, but that’s exactly what has happened. She’s been forgotten. Entirely. By everyone who knew her. From the gushing music critic in her hometown to the detectives investigating her murder, even her own mother.
