4.0
I just love Guy Gavriel Kay’s writing. This series is one of his earlier attempts so the plot tends to be a little bit clunky at times. The transitions are not always finely drawn and the plot does borrow heavily from Tolkien as others have said, but all of the elements of Kay’s more mature writing is also here and there is much to love in this trilogy. It is like a waking dream of a book.

The fantasy world just happens to speak English? Identical board games? Nope.

I don't know why it took me so long to get around to this trilogy but it's fantastic.

Lo so che poi Kay ha scritto cose belle. E pure molto belle. Ma questo proprio no.
