God's Demon by Wayne Barlowe

3.0

I loved the world building so much. I didn't care very much about the battle preparations and the battles themselves; a lot of that sort of went over my head except the general gist of "winners, losers, questionable behavior" and the like.

You can certainly tell he's an artist first and a writer second. His visuals are evocative and visceral, but his prose is very repetitive and sometimes self indulgent. It's easy to get lost from the big picture events in all the minutae.

But it was a fun, if slow, read. Not sure if I'll finish the series.
