A bit weaker than the first two books. There was just too much exploration of a single topic. I think I know why the author did it, but I still didn't care for it. Still, a good book.

5 Sterne
Delightful, fast read and a great entry to an interesting world. I saw the series (which is apparently not finished yet) being mentioned in /r/fantasy and decided that the blurb sounded interesting enough. And I am really glad I did. Looking at the genres assigned to this book my suspicions about the wizards seem confirmed. I just can't wait to learn more!
I also learned that the author is fighting breast cancer at the moment which just further encouraged me to purchase her books. It helps that they're good!

The Cormac story continues and improves. The stakes certainly are higher and I wonder where we'll go from here. Moving on to the Brass Man, which promises the return of an annoying villain.

Entertaining, fast-paced. A bit predictable, but ultimately fun.
kholerik hat Vapen från Avalon von Roger Zelazny besprochen (Wahlströms fantasy, #2. Boken.)
None
3 Sterne
Reading the series 20 years apart provides an interesting experience. I remember that as a teenager I wanted to be like Corwin, awesome and angry. As a somewhat adult I see the events more differentiated. Corwin does not seem nearly as awesome anymore.
