BOOK REVIEW

Honoured Enemy

Raymond E. Feist, William R. Forstchen

8/10Written Jul 26, 2012

This book is a nice book. It starts of a bit boring for me. a lot of action, but not so much soul. Once all the build up for characters is ready, i started to enjoy the book a lot. the book has stayed in my mind better than most of Raymond's books.

The book tells about differences in 3 different cultures and lifestyles and is a nice addition to the series. this book is a separate book and doesn't give anything new to the main storyline, but tells a lot about the way of life in different cultures in the world that Raymond created.

Rise of a Merchant Prince

This book is quite nice. The book is totally different than other books in Serpentwar Saga.

I imagine that not all the people like this book, but since i like stories that involve money and getting rich, this book is my favorite of this series.

This books is about a mans struckle to become rich, his personal life and about the war around.

Jimmy the Hand

Raymond E. Feist, S. M. Stirling

4/10Written Jul 26, 2012

I was expecting a lot from this book, since Jimmy is my favorite character from his books.

I was very disappointed. This book is the only book that i didn't fully read from him after i started one. For one third of the book, i just read the events, browsing through the pages.

the book is boring. Nothing really happens and characters are dull. Luckily all of the other books I've read from him are better.
