Books with swords in
Apr. 25th, 2007 10:24 pmIn my ongoing quest for titles I will eventually end up calling posts “stories featuring the letter ‘e’”, but at least this one sounds almost thoughtful (or, possibly, as if I've been impaling some of my less liked tomes).
The Privilege of the Sword has a lot of good stuff in it but ultimately fails to stick the dismount, and the key problem is the same one that had me put down Swordspoint three chapters from the end and never pick it up again.
( Ellen Kushner. The Privilege of the Sword. )
( Captain Alatriste, Arturo-Perez Reverte. )
