Stinz, Vol. III #6: A Marvelous Resistance
Editorial Reviews
Daniel Pinkwater, Chicago Days, Hoboken Nights.
Once again, I found myself caught up, compelled to read on, carried by the flow of the narrative, lost in admiration of the art, and completely unable to remember that the premise of this, like all Barrwerke is at least 50% insane. How does she do that? How come so few people seem able to do that? As someone once said, of someone else, just before they made Donna Barr, they broke the mold.
Joellyn Auklandus, Elfquest: Hidden Years, the Wild Hunt
Donna Barr's STINZ is an addictive delight, for fantasy-lovers, Teutonophiles, or anyone who treasures a well-told tale. Stinz Lwhard and his friends may be half-horses, but in Barr's capable vhands they become mirrors of those friends we all know; the ones we laugh with, fight with, get drunk with, and love. She understands Everyman, number of legs notwithstanding, the gorgeous but subtle tapestry of emotion woven into every incident, no matter how ordinary, shows her keen eye for humanity-watching, and that's a rare talent.
The adventures of Stinz will win you on several levels; with finely-crafted characterisations, luminous and insightful storytelling, and the obvious care and passion in every stroke of Barr's pen. She never misses a trick -- and you'll spend hours savouring every one of them.
