A review by kribu
Wings of Fire by Charles Todd
3.0
Actual rating: 3.5-3.75, but there's just something not quite letting me rate it as "really liked it".
I did like it, but ... dunno. Perhaps the pace was a bit too slow for me right now. Or it was just that the central mystery, while certainly interesting as such, never properly captivated me. Or perhaps it was the "lyrical singing of jackdaws" that kicked me out of believing in the story and never quite let me back in again. Who knows.
Anyway, still a good book, and Rutledge is a terrific character. But I think I'll need to take care to judge my mood better whenever I pick up the next book.
