kalinaraFor some reason, finishing Legacy of the Sword has inspired me to go checking up on the second most dysfunctional sibling relationship in the series that I've reviewed. (At least Lysaer isn't in his right mind when he starts fucking over HIS younger sibling, DONAL.)
It's also possible that I just really miss the purple prose.
So that means I'm going to be starting the THIRD book in the "Wars of Light and Shadow" series: Warhost of Vastmark.
As I said in my Ships of Merior review, originally (and in hardcover), Ships of Merior and Warhost of Vastmark were written as a single obscenely large novel. This may explain why some of the storylines in that book seemed to slip to the backburner. I THINK we're going to see at least some of them addressed in this book.
I remember finding Vastmark pretty entertaining, so I have reasonably high hopes for this review.
But first, let's make fun of the old cover!
I mock only because I love. And because it is actually really cool that Ms. Wurts paints her own covers. Arithon gets to be a bit manlier in this one, though his facial expression is very amusing. The boring new covers just don't compare.
( So let's jump in! )
