review 1: I blame Cormack McCarthy for not finishing his novels as a sign that they are part of life. Now, this incredibly long trilogy that is team written ends with a whimper not a bang. Yes, we come to the end of some strands but we are left with few of the romantic strands connected or even a nod toward them. The authors take an incredible time in reviewing the swordcraft of the warriors in the book. That makes for intolerable pauses in writing and an absence of character or plot invention. OK, I paid for these, but I regretted much of it.
review 2: An enjoyable read, though somewhat incomplete. The main plot is resolved, but some side plots that seemed quite significant were not. I know the authors were trying to set up a world to be further built by a community ra... morether than a single canon but I really wanted to know what was up with the spirit banner. Also the Rome plot never tied back to the main plot. It wasn't bad by itself, but I'm just not sure why it was necessary. less
