A satisfying ending to an engaging trilogy. I can see why this final tome was originally published in two partsit was a definite door-stop! I sprained my wrist two years ago, and I found that old injury aching at the end of lengthy reading sessions!However, the size of the volume was necessary in order to tie up the many, many loose ends from the first two books. I especially appreciated the return of Rachel the Dragon as an honoured elder lady, even as I grieved the loss of other characters. IThis is one of the longest novels ever written. It's the third in a trilogy, but it's about as long as the first two novels combined, making it a very odd but very satisfying final chapter.Each step of this series has been pretty difficult for me to meaningfully rate, but I'll use this rating of this book to do the whole series.I think each book is about a four but the series as a whole is a five, if only because of how complex and beautiful and awesome it all is. The worldbuilding is probably
It is impossible to write a review of this novel without giving any spoilers, so I will simply make two points. One, it is now 3 am and I have just finished the book. I couldn't put it down - which is quite a feat for a book over a thousand pages long! Two, I would dearly like to sit down and have a drink with Tad Williams. I want to know how such an epic is created. Does he know from the beginning, was he in on the many secrets from the start, can one mind really imagine it all up from the
To Green Angel Tower is an action packed, exciting and all-around excellent ending to Tad Williams' Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy. However, there were definitely times throughout the book that I felt like To Green Angel Tower was longer than it needed to be and occasionally featured scenes that felt redundant, with multiple scenes kind of feeling like a repeat of previous scenes throughout the book, and I felt like that didn't exactly help move the plot forward when that happened. That being
I've been hearing about Tad Williams's "Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn" series simply forever, it seemed, so when I saw a deal on this book, I snapped it up.This was my introduction to the series, even though it's book 3 in the overall series, so I was coming in at a bit of a disadvantage. However, I was able to follow along with the plot about as well as it was possible to follow along , and got to know the characters pretty well along the way.By that you might guess that the book is long and the
Got tired of all the tunnels...It's a trope, of course, in these fantasy series, that you have to go underground, and we did, over and over, throughout the books, and in this one, we had to do it again, not once but I think three or four times from multiple characters' points of view, and often through the same tunnels, with the same descriptions. Tunnels in two different places, even.Also, other areas of this world's geography had to be revisited. The forest, the swamp, the sea. Why is it that
