Mental block ^_^; So might as well give them to you so you can enjoy them. Also, apparently, the first book is out of print... All I need is find them LOL.nathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444239480570451270.post-26878893362629064652012-03-18T13:37:30.093-04:002012-03-18T13:37:30.093-04:00Nath, this is a good book and the series is even b...Nath, this is a good book and the series is even better! The covers are NOT the best, I agree. I placed a note at the bottom of this review about them because I hate the fact that these books are so great and the covers don't do anything for them. BUT, don't judge the books by the covers, this is an excellent series so far. <br /><br />I don't have the Monette books! Thanks for the offer Nath! You're so good to me. :DHilciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765831808358693421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444239480570451270.post-38801809748720361662012-03-16T19:52:59.506-04:002012-03-16T19:52:59.506-04:00Sounds like you really enjoy it :) It seems like a...Sounds like you really enjoy it :) It seems like a good book... but for some reasons, I'm a bit put off by the covers ^_^; It seems a bit too old-fashioned... <br /><br />Do you have the Sarah Monette books? If you don't, I think I have the first two or three and they are yours :Pnathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626894830238717124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444239480570451270.post-72600397658436789082012-03-15T11:26:38.254-04:002012-03-15T11:26:38.254-04:00Oh you haven't read it yet?

It just took me forever to post the review (it has been or draft forever, lol). <br /><br />Since you loved A Companion to Wolves, this is a "must read" for you. The authors really expand their worldbuilding and although I did have a few niggles, I still can't wait for the next (final?) book. <br /><br />I WILL read Sarah Monette. She's on my list of authors. :)Hilciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17765831808358693421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1444239480570451270.post-8318982766801543482012-03-15T02:20:00.402-04:002012-03-15T02:20:00.402-04:00Fantastic review!

I am looking forward to reading this - no, I still haven't read it :( It's such an interesting world.<br /><br /><i>I've never read Sarah Monette</i><br /><br />No? I adore her Doctrine of Labyrinths series. I've reviewed the first three books on my blog if you're interested in knowing more? *grin*oranniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14007355589161084262noreply@blogger.com
