The Barrow by Mark Smylie

3.0

This was an interesting adventure. I really enjoyed the action parts of this book. I felt like they could have added more action and less world history while they were traveling. It was an interesting well developed world. I often felt like it was a little over developed. The info dumps of names and historical things were sometimes confusing and to much. There was not any characters I liked, this made it harder to enjoy because I really didn’t care what happened to them. There were also a lot of weirdly placed sexual references/actions, they didn’t seem to really fit or add anything to the story other than shock factor.
