llewis 's review for:

Carrier of the Mark by Leigh Fallon

I like the story. I like the lore and I like the location. However it saddens me to say, the writing just wasn't there. It was really hard to read most of the book. Sentences felt stilted and the dialogue with cheesy to name a few. Show me don't tell me. The writing really picks up by the time you get to the point in the story where the prologue occurs. That basically occurs two chapters from the end and I guess by that point you probably gotten used to the writing style. I will continue with this series for two reasons: I already bought the second book and I want to find out more about the Lore. Maybe the writing has or will improve with the sequel.
