barb4ry1 's review for:
Thron in Flammen: Roman
by Brian Staveley
After reading reviews of people disappointed with this one I was little afraid I wouldn't be happy with the direction the characters develop. However this is not the case. Actually I rather enjoy the way main characters evolved. Sure, they're irritating at times but I didn't feel their choices were out of character.
The plot was interesting and I'm in love with Pyrre.
I give this book 4 stars because I really think some ruthless editing and cutting 20 % of the book would make it much more enjoyable. There were passages that didn't engage me at all but I forced myself to go through them in order to take notice of details. It was tiring.
Funny thing is I still have impression that Brian Staveley writes sidecharacters that are much more interesting than main ones. Pyrre is brilliant and her perception of life and reality is refreshing. Nira and Huutsu, even though they get limited space, makes you want to get to know them better. Flea and his wing are very cool as well. I wnt to know more about them. Actually I'm more intersted in their fates than in Valyn, Kaden and Adare future.
Today I'll start third book. I think the series is worth trying.
