Lamentation by Ken Scholes

3.0

This didn't amaze me but it was pretty good, probably more like 3.5 stars. Some adult content but it wasn't really gritty or dark. The plot was rather unique - no arrogant elves or comedic dwarves, no dragons, no dark lord in his dark tower and very little magic. The writing was nice and the steampunky mecho-servitors were cool.

I guess my biggest problem with it was that there wasn't a lot of suspense. Usually the good guys do okay then things start going bad until you think "oh my how are they ever going to survive this?" Then something clever happens and everything is okay. This was more like something bad happens then the good guys kick the bad guy's ass.
