well, i think the deviation from the initial storyline to follow Imriel didn't help. regardless, i think this is easily one of the best series of books to come out in recent years. i can't get my head OUT of them.
I like the idea of following Imriel and all...but I want more pf Phedre's story. Though...it could be difficult to follow up Kushiel's Avatar....i mean, it would be somehting SERIOUS to top that story...
I haven't read any of the Kushiel books, but I've heard they're really good and they're on my list. Currently I'm working on His Dark Materials trilogy by Phillip Pullman
Guess I know which books I'm getting with my next Border's 30% off coupons :)
I've been meaning to get to the Kushiel books... was going to get them before the recent nearby con that Carey attended so I could hopefully get them signed. Now that I'm caught up with Butcher, Harrison and Knight, I should have more time for somebody new.
Oh I so wanted to go to Darkover this past year too.
seriously, these books are great. Unfortunately, they read a little too quickly...The first one is the longest (my paperback is like 900 pages), and I can get through that in less than 2 days
I just finished Scion recently and was lamenting the fact that I had to wait a few weeks to get Justice. Amazon sent notice that they had already shipped the book. You might want to check there if you're impatient, I'm supposed to have the book in hand this afternoon.
