review 1: Much better, EV, much better.I really should have taken notes throughout the series about things that bothered me (there were a great many) but with Destiny's Star finally with some decent pacing I decided to shut my inner yap and just keep reading to find out what happens next.It was a satisfying read - unlike the first of the star trilogy (abysmal!) I really do appreciate the world-building that EV accomplishes, but there's so many questions left unanswered, so many starts and stops to characterization that it leaves me wondering the need for extraneous characters.Shocking, because I for one, love a cast of thousands. This book at least answers more questions than all of the others combined - I'm satisfied now though that I don't think there should be a need for more bo... moreoks after this one. Hm...what about the dragon at the end of WarCry though...?
review 2: It is an enjoyable beach read. You should definitely read the other books in the series before this one - otherwise you will be a little lost. It adds more to the customs of the Plains and shows that people can change and grow, even when thought to be stuck in their ways. The characters are engaging and the story of Ezren and Bethral is satisfying. The only drawback was the ending - it was very abrupt and clearly was intended to leave an opening for the next story. Yet reading the author's note at the end it appears the next book will deal with Xy and possibly the Plains not Edenrich. Which, if true, means it will be at least a couple of years if not longer until that story is told. Truly aggravating. less
