thecaptainsquarters 's review for:

The Rising by Ian Tregillis
5.0

The second novel was a decent second novel. I am glad that I read it. Of course a lot of it dealt with a siege of the French holdout. And I usually would be happy without sieges. However, the book was still fairly fast paced. How Longchamp deals with the siege is wonderful throughout. Really the highlights for me of this novel are Jax and Berenice. Jax for his view point and Berenice for her plot twists.

All in all, it was a wonderful day of reading and I highly recommend this series. As much as I wish, this review does not deal with how awesome the book really is because it would spoil things. I certainly want the next novel.
