natwing 's review for:
Kushiel's Dart
by Jacqueline Carey
DNF 17%. 1.5 stars. Sexual abuse of teens/children sold as political intrigue really isn't what I wanted out of this read.
The foreshadowing is so heavy handed it's irritating and makes otherwise good writing look clumsy. The world building would have been interesting if done more carefully but the reader is either given not enough information or too much information, much of it difficult to contextualize no matter how much is given. Too much is expected of the reader and it's absolutely exhausting.
