Fantasy I liked this book ok, but definitely not as much as I did when i was in High school. Good overall, but just seemed a bit predictable and less nuanced than I remember. The whole southern barbarian thing seemed vaguely racist (desert outsiders condemned for their savage customs, ect) which was disappointing. I may or may not continue reading the series. This one was a reread, but I haven't picked up any of the sequels before and despite some criticisms I'm curious to see where the series might lead. I have had this book on my TBR pile for awhile and was excited to read this. I ended up reading the first 200 pages of this book and just couldn't get into the story, so I stopped. It was written in a very simple style and ended up being very boring. No matter where or when I read this book I kept falling asleep and I rarely fall asleep while reading. The story bounces back and forth between a young hedgewitch named Makenna and a young knight. Makenna has befriended the goblins in the woods and is harassing the ruling kingdom with her goblin army. The young knight is sent to find her and lead a group of church sorcerers to stop Makenna’s rebellion. I struggled with the stark writing style and how slow the story moved. I didn’t find the characters, the storyline or the world-building to be all that interesting or engaging. Overall I didn’t like this book and stopped reading it after the first couple hundred pages. I won’t be continuing with the series, this was just not for me. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
