While the author did a great job illustrating the setting, it seemed to be lacking in character motivation and contextual development. Granted, I did not read the prequel but even so I have read a lot of trilogies or series works that illustrated the importance of an event even if the reader did not read the previous books. Not having explained some of these contextual points in this book made it difficult to understand the reasons of character actions and decisions and importance of fairly essential elements such as religion and racial relations. All in all a decent read, although it ended somewhat abruptly. (  ) smakko2000 | Sep 14, 2015 | Cette critique a été écrite dans le cadre des Critiques en avant-première de LibraryThing.At the end of the last book, Aengus is now homeless since his home and everyone on it was killed. He was hart when he fell from the cliff. He had brain damage and could no longer see colors so now he cannot paint. The second book is mostly about how he goes about going after the men that killed everyone on the island--his revenge. The book is well written and vivid in descriptions of the area and of the people. The book can be read without reading the first one but I will say it's a big help if you did read the one before. I can't wait to read the last in the series to see what happens to the painter, Aengus.

Very good indeed. ( ) zjordi | Jul 16, 2015 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieThe Painter (2)
How do you go on when everything you love has been lost?Aengus might have become the Painter who would save his people, but that hope was crushed when his village was massacred, leaving him the only survivor of the slaughter. Grief-stricken, he threw himself off a cliff, only to awaken horribly injured and emotionally hollow, a color-blind Painter who would never again wield the magical power of the color pots.Now a navigator for the pirate Timbertoe, who fished his broken body from the water, Aengus wreaks a savage revenge upon the Wolfhounds who destroyed his people and his life. When cornered by his enemies one night, he is forced to plead for sanctuary at the home of a reclusive sorceress.There he meets Rose, a mysterious green-eyed beauty who has long walked his dreams. But the fury of the Wolf lashes out at them, and to save Rose, to save himself, Aengus desperately reaches once more for the gift of painting locked in his damaged brain--and for the strength of heart to accept his fate...
