The Black Jewels Trilogy
by Anne Bishop
I had this book on my shelf and the spine was cracked so I am assuming I read it it 15+ years ago but upon rereading it realized I only had the vaguest recollection of a couple names and details and remembered practically none of the plot. I must have originally enjoyed it because I have some other Anne Bishop books I bought. I had recently heard Sarah J Maas was very inspired by Anne Bishop so I decided to do a re read and see what the overlaps were. The three books averaged 2.5 stars so I rounded up to 3 for total rating.
Daughter of Blood (2 stars)
This book was very dark and disturbing. I’m shocked that in my younger years I would have liked it enough to carry on with other bishop books
Heir of Shadows (3 stars)
Here I realized Maas completed lifted the Eyriens as her Illyrians including the special mountain trail which was barely touched on. Plot wise this one was probably the most enjoyable out of the three
Queen of Darkness (2.5 stars)
This one felt like it just dragged on and on. Plot was meh.
