Mi è piaciuto parecchio, cosa non frequente per i fantasy 'mattone', che ultimamente soffrono di eccessiva lunghezza rispetto alla storia che vogliono raccontare.
Questo romanzo resta lento in alcuni punti, qualcosina in più si poteva tagliare, ma, pur facendo parte di una saga, ha un arco narrativo che si conclude in maniera più che soddisfacente all'interno del primo volume, per cui continuare è una scelta, ma non una costrizione per capirci qualcosa.
La trama è ben costruita, con pochi 'luoghi comuni' e qualche bella sorpresa. La storia d'amore è forse un po' affrettata, ma è perfettamente perdonata vista l'assenza
**************
Considering the plot/length ratio, I can say to be satisfied of this novel. Lately, fantasy have become too long for the story they want to tell, especially if they are parts of a series. but in this one there is an arc that ends with the book, and to keep going feels more of a choice than the only way to know "what in the world is going on with these people".
I found the secondary characters quire forgettable, unfortunately, and the story dragged a bit in some parts, but if you love the genre I think it's a worthy read, with some decent twists and not too many cliches (the useless love triangle I was fearing did not happen, whoo!).… (altro)
