gaiapassarelli 's review for:
Hild
by Nicola Griffith
I understand the criticism. Really, I do. This is a challenging read with tons of historical detailing going on, the kind of work that can go boring and confusing. Had to re-read whole segments in order to keep track of the what/when/who/why going on. But once you get hold of Griffith's rhythm and style, she offers a richly constructed world with interesting characters and superb descriptions of nature, battles, lust and intrigue. Loved it, really. And Hild, what a badass. One note, tho: useful family tree and glossary, but the edition could really use a map!
