Even with their combined Elemental powers over Earth, Fire, Air, Water, Spirit and Sight, Lorand, Rion, Tamrissa, Vallant, Jovvi, and Naran are hard-pressed to defend Gandistra against both its internal and external enemies. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |

...they are something of an improvement over the previous books. The pure fuliginous paint slapped over the villains earlier dissipates, to some extent, as we see some not-as-bad-as-all-that and some actual redemption happening. The Jordanesque relationship issues, while not gone, are at least used considerably less and more lightly painted. We meet some interesting new viewpoint characters (and other Blendings); we visit a foreign country which is nicely gray and with their own scheme of Blending to support their republic, which although faulty is interesting, and fight off some invaders who are using the ability to Blend in a much darker way.
So, yes, some interesting stuff, some improvement, still a pretty fun, light read, and then you get to the absolutely huge, reaching back across all eight books, deus ex freaking machina right at the end, and that, gentle reader, is when you pitch the last book at the wall.
I don't exactly regret the time I spent reading these, but I wouldn't exactly recommend them, either.
