The Blinding Knife is a book with three major plot threads and I had pretty different feelings about each of them. The largest is Kip's, the second largest is Gavin's, and the third is a significantly smaller one featuring the character Liv. Kip's Story (4.5 Star)I really enjoyed this part and I think it easily makes the book worth reading by itself. Kip came across to me as much more interesting and likable in this book than he did in the first book (The Black Prism). Though toward the end theOops, I finished this last week but forgot to update! It was amazing.
2019 Update:Fuck this book. It's too great to exist. Gollie.Original Review:THE BLINDING KNIFE reaps the rewards of THE BLACK PRISM's blood, sweat and tears. With all the tedious staging firmly in the past, this book starts with a bang and keeps banging until the finale which concludes with a bang. For a book fueled by politics and religion it really packs a punch.THE BLINDING KNIFE veers directly into urban fantasy while not losing any of its high fantasy pizazz. The story centers mostly on The
I accidentally deleted this review. I will write it again in the near future, but until then, long story short, it was the "worse" installment of the series, and yet, it was still awesome. It was the least awesome. Does that make sense?You can find more of my reviews over at http://BookNest.eu/
The intrigue and entertainment level went up a notch or two in this second installment of Lightbringer series. The first book was really good, but this one was really DAMN good. I'm not real big on books with a lot of politics involved. This one seemed to have just the right amount for my tastes. It all mixes so well with the type of governing system used. The characters involved play off of each other so well, and get others mixed up in the plots and schemes. Very well done! "Freedom isn't the
This was an expansive story with lots of different plot arc intertwining and some cool world-building in the best tradition of epic fantasy. At times it verged into being overly pulpy but it was still a load of fun. Kip's coming of age story was awesome, Teai (Taei? It's Something weird like that and I can't be arsed checking) was a cool character and her sections added an interesting dimension to the book (with cool spy stuff and a new dimension to the world's magic system), Liv's parts
Executive Summary: A vast improvement over The Black Prism. It still has all the same flaws of the that book, but in far less quantity.Audio book: I read rather than listened to the first book in this series. The fact that Simon Vance was the narrator helped push me over the edge on continuing this series after being rather underwhelmed by the first book.As expected, he does an excellent job with a great variety of voices and inflections that just make the story come alive.
