I’m accustomed to that from watching anime, but some readers may find certain scenes disturbing. Not of the gruesome variety so much as the shocking. Plus, there are illustrations of them, which is always a welcome addition. And such fascinating fauna! From giant bats to killer insects, this story has it all.
The mysterious southern kingdom, known as the Klashe, in particular caught my interest. The climatic extremes produced by a tidally-locked world and the civilizations that formed around them are presented in a straightforward, easy-to-visualize fashion. But when I finished reading it, I was left with mixed feelings. There’s a tidally-locked planet, a mixture of science fiction and fantasy elements, animal companions, and multiple points of view (POVs). I selected The Starless Crowndue to some striking similarities between it and the novel Kristina and I have written ( Trials of the Innermost). My Rating: 3.0/5.0 Starless Crown Book Review Overview: An alliance embarks on a dangerous journey to uncover the secrets of the distant past and save their world. Please keep in mind that this is just my opinion and you may vehemently disagree with it at your leisure. Here’s my spoiler-free review of the last book I finished: The Starless Crown, by James Rollins.
A positive side effect of all those flights is more time to read. Greetings, Seekers! I (Jonathan) have been traveling a lot for work per usual.
