I found this book very realistic and satisfying. It is nice someone brings different view to this genre. I recommend to classic lovers and fantasy lovers.

I enjoyed the first two books in the series that I will read the third one, and hope that I like it OK. Aleksei is such a great, flawed character, I know it's going to be hard to get excited about anyone else. Although I am really interested in Tamara's POV. <br /><br />US release date is Oct? no fair! I don't want to wait that long.redheadhttp://littleredreviewer.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4438041449595085165.post-67575310618170579542011-08-05T14:01:42.379-04:002011-08-05T14:01:42.379-04:00Good info!

Yet don't you think there are a lot of books, stories with the usual, ordinary already characters like vampires, kings, knights, princesses, dwarves, wizards with sharp hats, etc? We can read about them in almost every book of the genre? There should be new, unseen and unknown characters, creatures in the stories. Creatures like weightless korks, glowing, living balls, night fruit, fish-keepers, Brown faces, Fiery men, etc I use in some of my works sound more interesting than the usual? <br />I know the most important in the fantasy genre are the wisdom, good plot and writing skills but some "fresh blood" of new characters would make the fantasy books better?<br />Best wishes! keep the good work going! will be glad to follow your blog! Any writer and reader could find useful info there! LET THE WONDERFUL NOISE OF THE SEA ALWAYS SOUNDS IN YOUR EARS!
