The story really focuses on one character more or less but the other people you meet along the way keep things interesting also.
I am not sure that I could count the number of treatments of Lord of the Rings that I've read.The story is well written and goes by quickly. I'm also interested in good standard treatments though. I am always interested in books that take conventions of the genre and do different and new things with them. It focuses on a character and how the character is changed by magic and war. I really like that the focus of the story was not on saving the world and defeating an overpowering enemy. (It has new cliches and a distinct refusal to accept the common fantasy plot.)I really enjoyed the book, and found it a refreshing look at a fantasy setting. The general impression sounded good and it sounded like an interesting book in the fantasy genre that didn't just throw around the same plot and cliches. It sounded interesting, and I liked that the author took the time to answer the questions.
I found this book through Joseph Mallozzi's blog / book club.
