Julia Sarene's Reviews > Black Sun Rising

Don't let my low ranking deter you - this is a perfectly fine book, just not my exactly my personal cup of tea.

First off it has kind of a fairytale vibe for me - and I never liked those.

It also starts off with a feel like a secondary world - but after a short while (so no spoiler) we learn that it actually us humans in the future - and I personally HATE mix ups of realworld and secondary worlds. No idea why - it just doesn't click with me.

It is written emotionally - don't get me wrong, it isn't a romance or anything, but I much prefer a style that is more matter of fact and way faster paced.

So all these things don't make it a bad book at all - they just mean it isn't the perfect book for me!
The plot itself is interesting and the prose is fine, even if it isn't my favorite. Some of the characters could have had a bit more depth, but overall they were pretty well developed as well.

So if you don't object to my pet peeves, this might still be the perfect book for you. :)
