Inda by Sherwood Smith

3.0

I did like this. I didn't love it. I think I went into it expecting it to be much more fast paced and action packed, but it's definitely a much slower paced book. It took me quite awhile to make sense of all the names and to get a handle on who was who and what meant what. I don't really understand the point in fantasy books to come up with insanely complicated new names for things that already have perfectly useful names that one can pronounce and doesn't need a glossary to understand. That's not just strictly a criticism of this book, but of a lot of sprawling fantasy books in general.

Overall I found I became really attached to a handful of characters and I am definitely interested enough to pick up the next book and see where the story goes. But it's not something I'm just running to get to right now.
