sandygx260 's review for:
Emperor of Thorns
by Mark Lawrence
Didn't like it as much as the first, liked it better than the second although it still had the convoluted flashback structure. Some great twists and an expected yet unexpected ending. I guessed who the Dead King was back in the second book— for once I was correct.
But really, the flashback structure is why I didn't give any of the books five stars. Why set most of the book in flashback? I still don't understand that decision. But I do give ML thumbs up for sticking to a proper trilogy structure and delivering said books quickly, unlike some writers we despair over.
