Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. I am sorry to say I didn't like this at all. Ok, that's not quite true, it had some really good moments. But overall the story is a disappointment. For one, Oberon is missing for most of the book. Then Atticus gets himself onto a collisions course with fate. Fine, no problem, but I didn't like the ending at all, there is hinting of bad things to happen, then they actually happen, and then the book ends. This was too unfinished or too to-be-continued-in-another-book, especially for this kind of series. This is quite simply not the kind of series where a cliffhanger like this ends with fits. I am going to ask friends if it gets better again before I continue. I don't like this! I gave up 85% of the way through because I was so utterly fed up. The logical heir to Butcher and Dresden, my butt. Only if it had been butchered. I'd have to be completely hammered to finish this. I'm not even sure if by alcohol or by the actual weapon, either. I... I don't understand how this book can be so utterly, unapologetically awful. I mean, Atticus is the epitome of a Gary Stu, but the pacing and plotting of this book was just.. just.. I'm speechless at the awfulness of this book. Minor spoilers in the review. I wasn't expecting this - but i liked the first book, the second was "okay" and this one is just not fun for me. The main characters motivation is poorly explained but he kills stuff and people for unbelievable reasons. Also he is just a druid but he outsmarts any god of course... Do i care about the new characters that join him on the quest? No. And also no - i don't want to hear stories from four people sitting around a fire. That is just bad story telling. Well - enough good books out there - i won't continue this series. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Writers, why do you do this? I can't think of one author that I read on a regular basis that has such a weak writing style that they need to rely on this most irritating of trends. I just don't understand it.
It also took away any enthusiasm that I had for reviewing this book so I'll leave it with my favorite quotes and a general grade. My quotes may indicate some of the glee experienced while reading; this review indicates how I felt about the ending.
Favorite quotes/highlights from Kindle:
I looked upward and had difficulty focusing on anything much, due to severe squirrel turbulence.
Note: Best line ever.
Note: Gotta love Oberon
It’s bloody difficult to concentrate properly when you’re dying of renal failure and all your brain can do is squeal.
Note: Ya think?
Overall: C ( )
