I loved this. Right from the beginning, when it introduced a mysterious apostate fleeing a cult who worshiped a spider goddess who intended to devour the world, I was hooked.I particularly enjoyed the characters of Cithrin and Marcus. Geder, I've been unsure of. He actually is a bit scary, and I'm s...
Although this book seemed to be missing the novel ideas found in the Long Price Quartet (the Andat being the prime example), it was still a very good read. The characters were interesting and well-drawn. It moved along at a nice clip and he certainly seems to have built a good setup for some horrifi...
Details: The Dagger and the Coin: Book One Received from and reviewed for BookgeeksIn the prologue of The Dragon’s Path a young apostate runs away from a remote religious community in the sure knowledge that if those following catch him, he will be killed. Through sheer determination and ...
I need to read it again (very good sign), but I thought The Dragon's Path was an excellent for a first book in a series. It starts slow, which is expected when there are several plot branches and characters to meet, but the pace and action pick up considerably after that. The byplay between Cithri...
The star rating system is vague and imperfect. My feelings on this one are somewhere between "liked it" and "really liked it," but I decided to give it four stars because if any author deserves an extra star, it is Daniel Abraham. His first published series, The Long Price Quartet, has been named am...
I'd heard great things about this author in the corners of the internet I frequent, so trying out his new book seemed like a good idea. The beginning didn't grab me, but in the first chapter we meet an acting troupe putting on a play that so cleverly mocks epic fantasy--"despite the actor's warnings...
This is the first of a proposed quintet ('The Dagger and the Coin'), and is the author's first foray into what might be termed mainstream fantasy, after the critically applauded but unconventional 'The Long Price Quartet'. The dagger of the series title represents war, while the coin is economics - ...
While I normally strictly choose to read and review romance novels, I decided to give myself a small break and pick up The Dragon's Path by Daniel Abraham, which is a traditional fantasy novel with no romantic elements.I am so incredibly glad that I did.Abraham's gift of words weaves an intricate ta...
The margins are too wide, and the type is too large. There is no other explanation for me getting through more than 500 pages so quickly. Unless, of course, it was just incredibly well done.
This review is also published at http://thebookaholiccat.com This is the first book I read by Daniel Abraham and it was a very nice surprise. The Dragon Path is an amazing debut to a new series, The Dagger and The Coin.The Dragon’s Path is set in a world where dragons were the rulers of the world, b...
