Cast in Shadow by Michelle Sagara
1.0
That was a slow, painful, and utterly confusing ride. I didn't understand anything that was happening. While the world building was incredibly promising, the lack of any answers were so maddening that I couldn't go on. I can't even count how many of the following exchanges took place.
Kaylin: Why is this thing happening?
Dragon/Nightshade/Hawklord/Severen/Lions/Tigers/Bears/Oh My: Silly girl, have you learned nothing?
Kaylin: No! I haven't, that's why I'm asking.
Dragon/Nightshade/Hawklord/Severen/Lions/Tigers/Bears/Oh My: HAHAH, you idiot! You shan't know yet. It is beyond your capacity to understand.
As if the author has completely forgotten that this type of exchange is NORMALLY reserved to educate the READER in this completely ALIEN world/religion/myth/magic that the author has plopped us into.
I don't get it. How did this book get so many good ratings?!? I think I'd have chucked it long time ago if I wasn't aided in my understanding by a veteran of this series.
