very political
Reviewed: 03-21-20
This series is very political, and is clearly drawing parallels between the Tribari government issues and humanity's issues. But there is also a fair amount of character development, and drama at play, so it is not purely political.
i loved the narration. i thought the accent would bother me at first, but I got used to it very quickly and found that it added to the story.

Real characters
Reviewed: 01-23-20
I was given this audiobook and am freely reviewing.
In just this short story, a whole world is implied even though it is not detailed. The characters became real people to me almost immediately. Even where I disagreed with perspectives or decisions, I still saw the person making those decisions. This made the story quite moving to me, and I look forward to continuing the series.

Story
Enter the city of Hart's Hope, ruled by gods both powerful and indifferent, riddled with sorcery and revenge. The city was captured by a rebellious lord, Palicrovol, who overthrew the cruel king, Nasilee, hated by his people. Palicrovol, too, was cruel, as befitted a king. He took the true mantle of kinghood by forcing Asineth, now Queen by her father's death, to marry him, raping her to consummate the marriage.

Oldie but a goodie

of OSC's works this one is a touch more allegorical and convoluted than the others. nonetheless, it was a captivating tale, and I really enjoyed it.

Starts slow, but builds solid characters
Reviewed: 06-21-19
This was an interesting tale. I found that the story dragged a bit in the beginning, but that was, in part, due to the slow reading pace of the narrator. Once I turned it up to 1.33X speed, I found it much more palatable. I think it was also a bit slow because the author was taking his time to develop rich, and deep characters with detailed pasts - and that takes time. I'm sure the foundation built at the beginning of this book will lead to a story that is worth the wait in the rest of the series.
