Yep. Not unusual. lord-of-shadow Send a noteboard - 29/10/2010 02:27:47 PM
Gardens of the Moon was written many years before the second book of the series, and it shows. The writing is very noticeably inferior when compared to all the books afterwards.

As for what you should do, Ellestra pretty much covered it.

I hated it, as well. That seems to be the usual response to it, though. RugbyPlayingAshaman - 30/10/2010 01:30:25 PM 1620 Views
