A Fantasy Realm Too Vile for Hobbits - New York Times
I read the first 2 of this series avidly and lovingly after they were suggested by my friend Scott. The third started to lose steam for me. After this review/essay, I may have to go back to the start and read them all. I did get a bit overwhelmed, I think, by the painful events. Not quite enough redemption. But, perhaps I was too hasty. I'm always looking for good fantasy, and anything that is as imaginitive and new as these deserve a second chance.
