The Golden Princess: A Novel of the Change by S.M. Stirling

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

For some reason I keep thinking that the series will start moving faster again and this book proved me wrong again. A lot of wonderful detail about what the characters are wearing but the plot itself just drags.

The Given Sacrifice by S.M. Stirling a book review

The Given Sacrifice (Emberverse, #10)The Given Sacrifice by S.M. Stirling

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


This is the 10th book out of 15 of a series that I Started a LONG time but now it seems to just keep on dragging on. He has created a fantastic universe in the Pacific Northwest and I guess we call it the upper Midwest so I understand the need for the number of books, but wow this is a long series. The author does a great job of describing the scenes but at times it feels like he gets stuck in the details. Trying to keep track of who is related to who and how made me feel like I was reading Game of Thrones with the number of characters involved. I am sure sooner or later I will get back to reading the next one but for now I will let this series sit lower on my priority list in terms of reading.
