daniel_faniel 's review for:

The Infernal City by Greg Keyes
3.5
adventurous dark mysterious medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

My two big critiques are:
  1. The worldbuilding feels inaccessible to readers who are unfamiliar with Elder Scrolls. This book is definitely made for people who have played the games and have delved into the lore a bit. Without that knowledge I feel you’d be really confused, especially with how much it jumps around with characters and setting. I’m a huge Elder Scrolls, especially its lore, so I had no problem.
  2. It ends with a cliffhanger. I haven’t read the sequel yet, but with how this book ends it really feels like they just chopped a book in two and sold it as a duology.
