A review by hanienr
An Autumn War by Daniel Abraham
4.0
This is such a good series. Why isn't it a bigger deal? I knew when I read the first book this series would turn into a favorite of mine but I didn't realize the degree to which it which pull me in.
This book continues the story of Otah, Maati and the rest and it focuses on the conflict between the Khaiem and the Galts. This conflict that has been built up, both in the background and in the forefront for the entire series finally comes to its climax. And what a climax it was. As opposed to the previous books in the series, this one has a lot more action in it which makes sense with the war on. I've always felt a little ambivalent to action, it isn't necessarily what draws me to a story, but I thought this book had an appropriate amount without overdoing it.
My favorite part of this series is the politics, the conflicts and how the characters react and act to the things that happen in the world. The character work isn't necessarily the best I've ever seen but they make sense, the act consistently and they're distinct. They're just also a little meh. Nothing special.
