![]() ![]() But I feel safe in saying what I didn't like are things other people will like.World-building: this is a fantasy revenge quest dressed up in science fiction clothes. Unfortunately, world-building and characters are two thirds of a book, and the plot wasn't enough to carry the story for me. Maybe I'm not just in the right mood for it, or maybe I'm getting too old for this kind of book.There were two things that really bothered me about the story and one thing that was annoying but not the book's fault: the world-building and the characters are the biggies, and the misleading cover synopsis is the minor. As it turns out, I tried really hard to like Empress of a Thousand Skies, but I just couldn't make it work. I picked it up because the synopsis of the second book in the series looked interesting, but also very much like a second book in a series. ![]() For every book there is a reader, and I hoped to be a match with this one. ![]()
