What Makes A Hero? (Lyra Belacqua)<\/p><\/div>\n

You may recall that I kicked things off last month with \u201cthe call\u201d<\/strong><\/a>? This month I\u2019m discussing the importance of circumstance\u2014with reference to works of Fantasy fiction, of course. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n

Continuing on from last month, you may notice that I\u2019m using examples from The Wall of Night <\/strong>and Thornspell<\/em>, as well as other works. The reason, of course, is because they are \u201cheroic fantasy\u201d tales, so relevant to the current series.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, I think you\u2019ll find the discussion and the examples given are reasonably wide-ranging. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

So although this notice is a few days on from first posting, I hope you\u2019ll head on over and check out my (terribly important! \ud83d\ude09 ) thoughts on circumstance and the making of heroes.<\/p>\n
