Sweep of the Blade by Ilona Andrews
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
“I do not comprehend this species. How have they ever managed to achieve interstellar civilization without self-destructing?”
Read in November, ★★★★☆:
Chapter 17, parts 1-4, 15 p., http://innkeeper.ilona-andrews.com/20…
I am a little underwhelmed. There is a little too much discussion about who does what to whom and why for my taste. And too many too detailed descriptions of endless, different settings. And Maud always being the clever one and explaining to the others how it all works is starting to get a little old as well.
However, as soon as there are action sequences, the story takes off. IA does action sequences really very well. The battle scene at the end of chapter 17 is excellent.
