I'm trying to think of any stories written in second person. Not sure I've ever read one that did ...
I think they're pretty rare, Lynne. I found some through Goodreads when I was doing an earlier blog (not fantasy though) and looked at a couple of them. But haven't read any all the way through. I think it would be hard to maintain it for an entire blog. Here's the earlier link: http://www.thewriteflourish.com.au/posts/53-point-of-view-part-5-second-person
Hi Lynne
I wrote a flash fiction in 2nd person - basically letters to another character. And while I haven't read it - I believe Gilead would be in 2nd person as the father addresses his son. I did read a straight novel with 2nd person - The Oldest Song though most of the 'you passages' were at the beginning and then towards the end. Some create your own adventure stories may use 2nd person. It's a rare choice but it has been done - difficult to do well though.
