review 1: I bought this book and had it signed by the author at a local convention during Labor Day weekend. This book caught my eye as I was wandering throughout the convention and thought long and hard about buying it. In the end, I had to get it because the plot caught my attention when I heard about it. I regretted not reading this book within the first weeks instead of a few months later.What I found intriguing is the combination of sci-fi and fantasy and magic verses science, with a small bit of steampunk feel. This story is set in the far future when humanity has damaged Earth to the point they now end up living in space stations throughout the solar system. Certain humans now have special magical powers and a species of aliens, dragons, have made themselves known to humans a... morend have allied with them against another alien species. Humanity's spaceships are not like the spaceships of today and magic only will help them fly and fight against these vicious creatures.This was a book that I had a hard time putting down. A unique story idea with great character development and storytelling by the author. I'll probably have to pick it up again in a few months to read it over again.
review 2: The Sail Weaver is a delightful, magical journey through space with talking dragons and assassination plots. Tristan, the protagonist and head of The Sail Weaver Guild, takes his first cruise out into space to see his sails at work. Woven with magic, these enormous sails enable ships to sail through the winds of space. People called Air Weavers will weave an atmosphere in case of emergency sail failure.The Guild and Dragon Corps are closely linked and highly support each other, while the Navy is in opposition with them both. It creates a fair amount of great conflict throughout the book. Throw in pirates and vermin, and Tristan is kept very busy just trying to stay alive!Superbly written with inspired prose and an intricate plot, Muffy Morrigan delivers a magical fantasy full of action, intrigue, and adventure. Thick with descriptions and expert world-building, it will keep you entertained for days.My favorite quote:"Leave it to Thom to just walk onboard like he owns the place and blow it up. And after I spent hours of scheming." The dragon sighed. "Hours and hours of quality scheming gone to waste."I LOL'd. Seriously. Very Whedonesque, me thinks. Great stuff! less
