tani 's review for:
House of Chains
by Steven Erikson
I think I'm going to have to just start reviewing these books based on how they make me cry. Gardens of the Moon didn't make me cry, so it's a four-star read.
Deadhouse Gates brought on a solid sobfest for about 100 pages, and just the thought of the Chain of Dogs still has the power to bring me to tears. Those were the tears of injustice and cruel death.
Memories of Ice brought more restrained tears, but heartfelt sorrow for the loss of something I'd come to love. There was regret, but also the feeling that something had come full circle.
The tears didn't fall for House of Chains until hours later, and they were the quiet tears of a tragedy that never should have happened, of words unspoken and love unexpressed. These tears aren't as dramatic, but they'll stick with me a long time.
Steven Erikson, why must you break my heart?
