This book is where the series really becomes what he wanted it to be. It's so crazy and out there. If this guy was just a good writer this series would be one of the greats.

it was confusing in the beginning bc he didnt have any recolection of the clay dragons being alive, even tho at the end of the first book this was plainly revealed to him when he returned gadzooks fire tear to him. also a little unhappy with the love interest switch, but ehh, what ya gonna do?

Really enjoying my reread of the series. Would I necessarily be as enthusiastic about modern books with white authors drawing on ideas of indigenous spiritualism and mythology? No. But in consideration of the time it was made I am giving it a bit of grace (and these books are all secondhand so I didn't give him any cash for it, but I would recommend finding stories with indigenous authors over this, as enjoyable as it is)
