YMMV / Dragons: Lexicon Triumvirate

• Narm
  • The writing is full of Purple Prose, Meaningless Meaningful Words and Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness. Case in point:
  Upon the Mesozoic verdure, the sun cast its dawn light, giving life to the hovering woodland realm in the form pf photosynthetic vitality that sparkled betwixt the morning arbor.
  • After quite a bit of Purple Prose, we get this gem:
  Dennagon trudged through the grass, his noggin aching.
  • This is how Dennagon reacts when he's surprised:
  Dennagon felt like taking a dump. Luckily, he hadn’t any fecal matter left in his stomach.^note Fecal matter is stored in the large intestine, not the stomach.
  • As stated, there are a lot of points where the author tries to make Dennagon seem intelligent by reciting, learning, and musing over scientific facts. A lot of the times (and every time these facts are actually discussed) these smart people facts are high or lower school physics and Dennagon contemplating or just learning them makes him look like a dumbass. Like this gem.
  "Interesting,” muttered Dennagon to himself, “The force of gravity is 9.8 meters per second squared on this planet, but not in space. I wonder if ‘space’ actually exists.”^note This is the acceleration of an object near the Earth's surface, not force. The force of gravity throughout space varies according to the mass of and distance from celestial bodies.
