Still here! with some reviews

[starlady]

So I bought Cast in Chaos the week before I moved across the country to grad school in August and I still haven't read more than the sample chapter. Um, yeah.

But other people have been reading!

oyceter recently posted this review of the first two books of The Sun Sword; and boundbooks has almost reached the end of the series.

I have to admit, as much as I liked The Hidden City and City of Night, they didn't quite hit the heights of Hunter's Death or The Sun Sword for me. I have high hopes for House Name, though, and for the books after that…

It's interesting to read how different everyone reacts to these books so thank you for the links!

Like you, I have high hopes for House Name. I trudged through Jewel's backstory but I'm excited about returning to the timeline at the end of Sun Sword.

My major problem with these two in House War so far is the almost total lack of Evayne, and she is my favorite (well, okay, ONE OF my favorites). I was really interested by the stuff in City with Angel, and several other aspects of both, but all in all...yeah. Less backstory about characters we knew were going to die, more End of the World, please!

(And yes, other peoples' reactions to these books are fascinating to me, and also I think necessary, because I have lost most of my critical function when it comes to them.)
