Once I started the story kept me reading on and on (which actually doesn't happen that often) without wanting to stop. The whole universe and characters where all new to me, although I read a lot of fantasy and there are often similarities in the stories - this was very refreshing! Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. The mask of the river king is a science - fiction fantasy book involving the interplantetary travel between worlds via the great river ninagel. If you are looking for a science fiction that is new and stands out from the others this is for you. Jules has created characters, animals and everything in these worlds that you havent read about before, and she articulates these characters very well. Showing great detail. I especially like Frey, he was a slave, until he was saved by Niran and Umsu and he had no choice but to go with the saviours and join the adventure. Frey might be all they need to help save the world. On a personal note this book did take me a long time to get into it which was of my doing not jules, as this book is not my type of read/genre. I did skip a over a few chapters to read ahead and then went back and this helped me understand the concept of the worlds alot more finding it easier to read. Others who love and live for sci-fi fanatsy worlds would devour this book as jules is unique and creative just like her book. Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I found the premise of this book promising but had a hard time following the story. I had a hard time getting into this story. It has potential but isn't there yet. Cette critique a été rédigée pour LibraryThing Member Giveaways. I've been reading this book for a long time. It's got a good premise, and the world that Jules creates in this one is beautiful. I just can't seem to keep things straight in this one. I don't know why, but it's been very difficult for me to read. Every time I pick it up I have to go back and re-read a bit of it to re-orient myself as to what is going on. I really want to like it. I like Frey, the main character. He really seems to be coming into his own. The other characters are so neat. The way some of them are mixed breeds is a cool concept. They're not mixed like characters we're familiar with, from mythology or something, they're really unique mixes. The idea of the Nexus is a really cool idea. It gives the book endless possibilities. I just, for whatever reason, can not get situated with this one. I really want to like it, and I've been trying to. I just can't get there... It's got some great qualities. The world(s) that Wellesley creates are amazing. I would love to give this a much better review, as I think it has the potential to be a great book. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Over all though it was a *fantastic* read and I am sorry I didn't get to it sooner. ( )
