x4740NWhat is a bad writing trope you hate in fantasy fiction ?
grasshopper_mouseI dunno if it’s considered “bad”, but I personally hate when one of the characters gets amnesia, or the group meets a character that has amnesia. It just feels like a laziness by the author who can’t think of any other way to make a storyline interesting.
IvanOverdriveOne book that did it well was Nine Princes in Amber. It worked because the readers got to discover the “real world” along with the main character. Although it might have been fresh in 1970 and overdone since then.
