A review by kepheus
The Half-Made World by Felix Gilman
2.0
I read words. Lots and lots of words. Nothing happened. The end.
Okay, maybe I'm being pedantic, but there seemed to be no point to this. The west is half-made, but other pointing out the occasional oddity, this is a guided tour of one-dimensional characters, dull landscapes, and a thoroughly predictable plot. No, that's not entirely fair. I thought something would happen. In that aspect, I was surprised.
The ending has been left open for multiple sequels, but I can't say I'd read them.
