Rides A Dread Legion by Raymond Feist Harper Voyager Supplied for review by Harper Collins New Zealand |
Reviewed By: Katie Boyle |
| This is the beginning of yet
another trilogy set on Midkemia, with Pug as a major character (again). It is typical
Feist, if perhaps a bit less involving than his earlier works. There are good action
sequences, broken up by philosophizing and exposition. The old characters are still true
to themselves, and the new characters are unique. Pug in particular continues to learn and
his worldview continues to evolve – not something that’s easy after 21 books set
in the same world, with Pug at least peripherally involved in most or all of them. Some
major changes are afoot, and this book was interesting enough to justify continuing to
read the trilogy. Like the previous Feist book I reviewed, this one had some issues of proofreading and sentence structure; this one, however, was not nearly as bad as the previous one. Most readers would not find the issues enough to interfere with enjoyment of the book. |
