Spoilers and Nuts: Flesh and Spirit by Carol Berg
http://spoilersandnuts.blogspot.com/2012/05/flesh-and-spirit-by-carol-berg.html
Saturday, 5 May 2012. Flesh and Spirit by Carol Berg. Off the Shelf 2012. If I had any doubts that Carol Berg can write superb characters ( see Rai-Kirah series. Flesh and Spirit completely erased those. In Flesh and Spirit, the main character Valen seems to be made of actual flesh and spirit (and breath and bone, following the name of book 2), and has become one of my favourite characters. He is a pureblood, which would mean privilege and magic, but a recoudeur. Isn't free for very long. Cartamandua is ...

Spoilers and Nuts: October 2011
http://spoilersandnuts.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 30 October 2011. A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin. A Clash of Kings. A Clash of Kings, the sequel to A Game of Thrones. With so many storylines, it's easier to pick them apart and comment on each one. To start, Daenerys part was one that I least liked. There was not much going on, and what did happen did not strike me as very important (but I guess that's because she is so far away from the main action). But on the plus side, there were dragons. Not that they did much either. 4 out of 5.
