Great books read: 1Hours spent cheering for the goodies:2462621Hours spent cheering for the baddies:2462621Monster count: a few adorable goblins.Temples for Hadrian: O (I know, I know, I must be out of my mind :D) Rise of Empire contains two books, Nyphron Rising and The Emerald StormI read Theft of Swords recently, and now after the second installment finished, I can admit for sure that this read was way more better for me than the first one. I had a slight drag problem starting Nyphron RisingStrictly speaking, I would give the first and the second books 4 1/2 stars; as it is I gave the first book 5 stars, leaving the second with 4. This is much darker book, but still a very enjoyable read. A minor annoyance: there are less interactions between Hadrian and Royce (they are forced to work separately most of the time) which made first book great. Having said that, I still think the book is great, and it makes you want to read the last two novels of the series. If you read and like the
Brilliant.Brilliant plotline. Brilliant pace. Brilliant characters. Brilliant world-building. Brilliant plot twists.Brilliant everything.All hail Master Sullivan! There are no honorable causes. There is no good or evil. Evil is only what we call those who oppose us. The New Empire is rising. The Church uses a half-mad fake empress to unite the Realms of Men in the name of Novron. War is raging between the imperial armies and Melengar, the only Avryn kingdom that still resists, while the
Buddy read with Desinka and Gavin 4 STARS Just like the first book, Theft of Swords, Rise of Empire is two novels in one: Nyphron Rising and The Emerald Storm. Where the first two novels of the first Omnibus could survive as stand alone stories, tied together with similar backdroppings and continuing elements, Rise of Empire has moved deep into the connecting plot.In Nyphron Rising , the newly formed Empire, which the Nyphron Church is running in all but name, would like to annex
First book felt like a very long build up. Altough I enjoyed learning about the pasts of Hadrian and Royce immensely and wanted more of it, I've felt impatient time to time. I love to hate having opposing feelings*let the mud wrestling begin*. And vice versa. I adore the term vice versa. it has this making sense while not making sense thing going on with it's meaning and the actual sounding of it. sneakyAlric still seems to be an annoying twat but Arista has come a long way. Actually, if you
Its safe to say now that with each installment, each book in the series certainly gets better in its quality consistently. The 2nd omnibus in Riyria Revelations titled Rise of Empire consists of book 3, Nyphron Rising and book 4, The Emerald Storm and it's a superior omnibus by far compared to the previous omnibus, Theft of Swords. Like my Theft of Swords review, Ill start my review after showing you another beautiful book cover done right by Marc Simonetti and a beautiful fanart of a scene in
Full review now posted!Original review can be found at Booknest.What a way to end the year!Theft of Swords was the first book I started in 2017. Between all of the new books and authors I stumbled across and became obsessed with, the rest of Riyria somehow got lost in the mix. But Im so happy to be ending my reading year on such a high note; the wait feels worth it.I loved Theft of Swords because it was fun and engaging and harkened back to some of the foundations of the fantasy genre. I loved
