review 1: Good book, but not one to read by itself -- it will just leave the read grasping at straws.to many flash-backs to books that he has writen before, for a book that sits at now thousands of years into to his world.It would have made a better read as a short story with some of the flash-backs removed.A goodread for all true Mithgar fans, but not a good buy.To much of the book is... filler...
review 2: Mithgar is highly derivative of Middle-Earth--the early stories especially so. As McKiernan has continued to expand his creation, the legends and tales have become more complex. While I enjoy these stories, McKiernan has two weaknesses for me personally. First, he works so hard at vocabulary and detail that somtimes the stories have an archane feel. City of Jade suff... moreers from this. The other problem with City of Jade is the huge side-trip that is the journey of the Warrows until they join the ship's company. One of the strengths of the story is that the author resists the temptation to save the world. This is a simple adventure story, with interesting players. Not McKiernan's best, but a pleasant read. less
