Okay, all you millions of readers of Dante, Homer and Milton,
Madness comes in all forms. In my case, it was to write this epic in iambic tetrameter and take joy in people reading it, reveling in the lines and seeing its wry humor and over-the-top, unconstrained, joyous philosophical hubris.
Well, some are and some do!
Here are some interesting Amazon reviews of the biggest poem in 400 years:
“Magic, youthful exuberance, emerging power, love, betrayal, greed, demons, sadness, wisdom, redemption. It's all there, in a wonderfully captivating tale, well told. It has been years since I found a book such as this, one that I could not put down.” Amazon reader (male)
“The great thing about this book is that it's fun, it's heroic, it's a little sexy, a little violent -- and it makes you use your mind.” Amazon reader (male)
“How is the author going to enthrall me in verse? How does he find so many words to rhyme? How does he maintain the structure while keeping the story compelling and interesting? Soon, I was engrossed in the story for the story alone, which I feel is a major accomplishment by Mr. Bodkin.” Amazon reader (female)
You can buy The Water Mage's Daughter on Amazon from a very pleased poet.
