This gets 2.5 stars for “it was okay.” There are aspects of the book that I appreciate, but my reading experience was a slow one; when I take more than 3 weeks to read a 265-page fantasy novel, it hasn’t fully engaged me. God Stalk was first published in 1982, and has evidently become a cult class...
An interesting read and very different fantasy. Partially a coming of age novel, partially an adventure story, it looks like I have the trilogy in one novel somewhere so I'm looking forward to reading the rest.
4/5; 4 stars; A-This was a very satisfying read. The story brings to a close Jame's time at Tentir college and concludes a chapter in her complex entanglement with the Merikit people. I really enjoy the various chaotic disturbances that Jame always finds herself in the middle of. I particularly ...
4.5/5; 5 stars; AYou know that saying 'its not the destination, its the journey'? Well, the books in this series definitely take the reader on a journey. I have had a strong sense since the beginning that ultimately there will be a huge conflict of the good guys versus the bad guys and that might ...
4.5/5; 5 stars ADespite all the dark events that weave through the Kencyrath tales, this one,in particular, has some pretty funny moments. Jame's single handed destruction of part of the Tentir college cracked me up. Her trials with the equine members of the story were pretty entertaining. The Ke...
4/5; 4 stars; A-Another fascinating adventure in Jame's chaotic and dangerous life. I keep getting the sense of regency England in some of the value systems in play within the Kencryath culture. Tori's character is a mystery. On one hand, he is a strong, ethical leader, and on the other he is a ...
3.5/5; 4 stars; B+I found this book a bit more convoluted and hard to get into than the first one but there were many aspects I enjoyed. The imagination of this author is amazing. The strangeness of their world, the odd link between the twin minds, the overlapping worlds from the Chain of Creation...
4/5; 4 stars; A-This was a fantasy story with a female protagonist. There were some pretty dark moments but no so much that it overshadowed the sense of adventure evoked by the story. I enjoyed the different characters, the presence of magic, the strange culture of the city, and all the gods. The...
It's always been an odd series. Dark and with lots of details that can be hard to remember along with strange flashes of humor. Jame continues her time as a cadet, dealing with ghosts, other cadets and pets. The library didn't have it, so it was my first ebook purchase ever.
I am not remotely objective about this series. I love it so.That said, this is really the second half of Bound in Blood; they make a full book together.
