Book Reviews of Issola (Vlad)
Book Review: Not the best of the collection, but good
Summary: 4 Stars
I think the irony of this book is that while it's relatively light in page count terms, it's rather wordy at times. At least it's more wordy that other of Brust's Taltos books. The whit and irreverance of Vlad are certainly present, so those who love the character will be pleased. I did find the overall narrative bogging down a little in places, though, as the author spent what I thought was a little more time than usual on exposition. That said, it's still a good read, though I think it's less of a stand-alone novel than some of the others. One would be better off having read earlier books in the collection than hitting this one first.
Summary of Issola (Vlad)
Okay, so maybe I've been living in the woods too long, where you can't even get a decent cup of klava first thing in the morning. So who should turn up but Lady Teldra, the courtly servant of my old friend the Dragonlord Morrolan?
Teldra wants my help, because Morrolan and Aliera have disappeared, and according to Sethra Lavode, it looks like they may be in the hands of the Jenoine. Do I want to mess with them? The guys who made this place? And I thought I had problems before...
Oh well, what's a little cosmic battle with beings who control time and space? It's better than hunkering down in the woods without even so much as a drinkable cup of klava.
