Taltos

Finally, this book offers the history of Taltos. The world-building narration of the Taltos' history is intriguing and exciting, however it still is not quite the richness of the witches history from The Witching Hour.
The problems with Mona's character continue from the second book. It just becomes more ludicrous, obnoxious, and unbelievable. Even worse is Morrigan. Why is she so unconditionally accepted by everyone after what happened with Lasher and Emaleth in the second book? Rowan's character is completely useless throughout the book. There is one shining moment for her, but just that.
