A review by curgoth
Shattered Pillars by Elizabeth Bear

4.0

Book 2 of the Eternal Sky trilogy. As is typical with Bear's books, I am in love with the characters, and find the villain threatening, but understandable. It was a fair bit of cognitive dissonance to read this while, in parallel, listening to the Game of Thrones audiobook. It makes the problematic shortcuts Martin takes with the Dothraki really, really stand out.

The only story line that I'm feeling shaky about is Edene's, but I won't know how I feel about it until book 3 when I find out how it resolves.
