Stone of Farewell

Re-read on audio. Will review at www.fantasyliterature.com.

A long book - the good bits were excellent but there were some passages that I thought were overly long and overwritten and these got a little tedious. A little rest before I start the final (even longer) part

This was a bit of a letdown after a really enjoyable opening novel. Folks knock the first book because the first 200 pages are interminably slow. No one ever mentioned that the second book takes about 500(!) pages to really get going.

While The Dragonbone Chair raised many questions and provided few answers, Stone of Farewell raises very few questions and answers even fewer. Here's hoping the final doorstopper in the trilogy is packed to the brim with with action and plot development!
