A review by deebr
The Golden Torc by Julian May

5.0

The problem with some trilogies is that they tend to get a bit slow in the middle (I'm looking at you, Lord of the Rings). Julian May has avoided this by a) making the Saga of the Exiles a quadrilogy and b) ending the second book with events so huge, you wonder how momentum could possible be kept up. The word "epic" is rather overused, but I can't think of a better one to describe this book.
