I certainly loved reading the parts that concerned Kari... while hating the parts that didn't. I couldn't skip through the other POVs so I found myself speed reading through it. Sigh... I know I shouldn't but I just want to know what's happening with Kari!There is definitely a lack of development in Kari's romance department, but on her duties and uniqueness, a lot has happened. I want more of Kari and less of everyone else... unless it has something to do with Kari. Hahaha!(view spoiler)[ I'mI love this series. So many of the characters are strong women. The storyline and the characters keep me wanting more.
Of course, Karigan must be the center of the story, but the entire first 60% of the book was like a cameo for characters from the first to books. If you really love the world and books I guess that is nice and it makes the world more deep in some ways, but for a casual reader the (really) slow pace and no action made it quite boring at times. Rider horsesA little more background on the special horses were well told but still left a lot of questions. (view spoiler)[In the end "Magic" doesn't
This was a reread, and it was a struggle. I really liked this series when I first read it, but after beginning to read the most recent in the series (Firebrand) I realised how little I actually remembered of the preceding titles. So I thought I would undertake a reread from the 3rd in the series. Id forgotten how reliant it is on certain fantasy tropes. It felt like I was reading a young kids idea of what a fantasy novel should be, rather than an original work. The first half of the novel is
In The High King's Tomb, Karigan has to save the day again, as not only does the threat of Blackveil increase when the wall shows signs of breaking, but the king's intended gets kidnapped.Thankfully, this volume in the series is much better than the previous, which was a bit of a disappointment. I still like it best when the story takes place in the "real" world, and this takes a couple of trips outside too, but not enough for me to lose interest, thankfully. The thing is, Britain does her main
If I could live in any fictional world, as any fictional character, it would either be Karigan G'ladheon of the Green Rider series, or Maxwell of The Chronicles of St. Mary's; both of whom are badass heroines who aren't blonde and stunning Mary Sue assassins (*cough* too many YA books).
(spoilers ahead)THAT WAS AMAZING!!!! Just absolutely epic and thrilling, I LOVED it. Every book just gets better and better. I don't think I was so sure about Karigan as a heroine (thought she was a little boring in book 1) but I'm 100% on board with it now. She's exactly the kind of character I want when I'm reading high fantasy like this: living legend. She's so bold and courageous, someone who will be spoken about for generations, who has songs composed about her insane journeys and
