reunitepangaea 's review for:

The Lords of the North by Bernard Cornwell
4.0

Sometimes I think that Cornwell has a recipe for every book he writes. Either the main protagonist brings himself in stupid danger or he is betrayed by others. He is saved through luck, fate or sometimes even his own skills. He saves the day and is then betrayed again. The neverending cycle.
Don't get me wrong, it's a good recipe. But sometimes it's annoying.

In this book I really liked the parallels to his Warlord-Chronicles. Especially when it comes to magic. It was a great quick read. Nothing more to say. 4 of 5 stars.
