The author writes very well. She clearly knows her stuff. Battle scenes are well done and have an authentic feel; there's a lot of suspense and a nice hint of fantasy/witchcraft; not too much to strain credulity. However, while it is an entertaining read, it ended very suddenly and didn't seem a complete story arc to me, which is one reason I gave it only three stars. I wish it would have been longer to allow for a little more character development as well as tying up some of the subplots.
As a writer, I also had some issues with craft and technique that most readers will let pass. In my opinion, italicizing foreign words draws attention to them in a way that is distracting. They are not strange words to the characters, there fore it seems unnecessary to highlight them in this fashion. This author is skilled enough to provide the meaning in context.
I hope to see more from her on this or other periods of Russian history.… (plus d'informations)
