The Four Profound Weaves by R.B. Lemberg

4.0

While short, (175 pages,) this is not a book to speed through; it becomes one to savor. The world description required especially at the very beginning is dense, but maintains a lyrical quality that is still charming even while it requires a closer reading. As you settle into the setting, the adventure of the story picks up well, and the second half especially keeps the reader caught up in the momentum. The background characters are intriguing, but full focus is on Uiziya and nen-sasaïr. The story allows that their actions may have far reaching consequences, but that is not the interest of the characters, and so it is not the concern of this story. The story is devoted to just these two. And that devotion shows, as an endearing fairy tale of self-discovery and self-love.
