Book #12: Storm Glass, Maria V. Snyder
Mar. 8th, 2010 11:57 pmEpic fantasy, girl-power, assassins, intrigue, politics, craft magic, weather magic, really obvious true love.
You know how sometimes sequels don't live up to the original material? And how you spend the whole time wishing your old friends would show up because the new people just aren't the same? Yeah, this totally was not one of those times.
( And did I mention that this time THERE WAS A MAP?!?!? )
So a 9 out of 10 (keeping in mind that I bumped "Poison Study" up to a 9.5 on account of there being a map now).
I would like to point out that I read this book in a number of hours that is LESS THAN HALF of the number of DAYS it took me to plough through "The Ropemaker". That's what happens when your pacing is good.
