A review by lyndiane
Giant Thief by David Tallerman
3.0
After having this book on my shelves for a number of years, I finally got around to reading it. Perhaps my expectations, bsed on others' reviews, were a bit too high, as I found the overall story a bit disappointing.
Although very well-written, there seemed to be an excessive focus on the cross-country pursuit, and over-writing on the "I've got the stone, no, someone has taken it from me, I've got it again, it's been taken again" and finally, a bit of a Gollums scenario, "I lost it down the mountain into a river".
However, I will give the sequel a chance, as it may prove to be the redeeming factor.
