Middle book syndrome intensified

Neil Shah is OK, but the 5 demon brothers are hard to take. There should be a pdf listing all the characters and their relationships. Overpriced; re-package this 4 book series into 2 books, or give 2 books for 1 credit.

Lian Hearn

Although these books don’t come close to the OTORI TALES I still really enjoy them.
