Books 1 - 3 of 2015

1. Dreamspinner by Lynn Kurland

- a book by a female author

Pretty self-explanatory.  Since this was a re-read it didn't really fit into any exciting category.

Rating: 4/5



2. River of Dreams by Lynn Kurland

- a book with magic

Again, since this was a re-read it didn't meet any of the unique categories, but it is based in an imaginary land with magic where the main characters are magic wielders.

Rating: 3/5


3. Dreamer's Daughter by Lynn Kurland

- a book published this year

This is the newest book in the Nine Kingdom series, just came out last week.

Rating: 2.5/5



Like the last instillation of the Nine Kingdom series, Runach's story started out really well and with so much potential!  I was drawn into the story and was eagerly awaiting how it would all end.  Runach seemed like such a different character than her usual magic-wielding male leads and I really enjoyed that about him.

But then... surprise (not really)!  The main characters actually do have magic!  .........

I get that the series is based in a world full of the stuff, but is it so wrong to write a strong character that doesn't have magic?  And the constant "long lost magical persons found" storyline is SO overdone.

I love the Nine Kingdoms, I especially love Miach and Morgan, but I am glad to be done with the rest of the series.  I will most likely only ever read the original three books ever again.
