I LO...Well I am so glad you finally tried this one! I LOVE this series, and agree with Melissa that it gets better and better with each one. <br /><br />I do have to disagree tho, with your assessment of the lack of world building... From what I recall, I had to keep notes to keep all the moving parts and mythology/world parts straight. I suppose I don't read enough hardcore fantasy, and that may be why. Or it could be that I am remembering all the books as a whole, but the world and mythology is very complex to me! I hope you get and enjoy the second book!Jen Twimomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11267405113503713323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-69028575188188726482016-07-21T11:02:47.736+03:002016-07-21T11:02:47.736+03:00Hear hearHear hearBlodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-91100065744026115892016-07-21T11:01:37.790+03:002016-07-21T11:01:37.790+03:00She can still kick ass, and she is certainly not o...She can still kick ass, and she is certainly not old...of course in a pseudo fantasy world she would have been since people died younger there..*coughs*Blodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-32229257022655137052016-07-21T11:00:04.924+03:002016-07-21T11:00:04.924+03:00Yes totallyYes totallyBlodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-3863058112088723452016-07-21T10:59:33.172+03:002016-07-21T10:59:33.172+03:00I did try her steampunk one and was not a fan of t...I did try her steampunk one and was not a fan of that one, so yes I would recommend this one moreBlodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-83585710850033132012016-07-21T10:58:58.122+03:002016-07-21T10:58:58.122+03:00I am ok with less world, but I do find it hard to ...I am ok with less world, but I do find it hard to love something thenBlodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-54742558306961999392016-07-21T10:54:52.462+03:002016-07-21T10:54:52.462+03:00I am gonna go with a bit darker stuff today so thi...I am gonna go with a bit darker stuff today so this was neededBlodeueddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03435479623560871881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157347784110166160.post-61625774185916223682016-07-21T08:52:04.059+03:002016-07-21T08:52:04.059+03:00I'm cool with light world building in fantasy ...I'm cool with light world building in fantasy as long as it a good story overall.
