![]() ![]() ![]() It’s mostly a study in philosophy set in a fantasy setting. It’s the type of fantasy that focuses on mystery, on character insight, on philosophy and ethics, on writing. King of Thorns is not necessarily a book I would call fantasy, but rather a fantasy hybrid. If you wanted an action packed adventure left, right and center, this probably is not the series for you. The blurbs, are in my opinion, very misleading. It builds up slowly, rarely displays any hint of action or anything aside from Jorg’s introspection and memories, but I believe this is where the book truly shines. This was in my opinion the strangest 5 star worthy book I have read. May contain spoilers! Read at your own risk! This has got to be the best 7 euro I have spent. Was it worth spending a month slugging through this book? >.- I am not really sure, but I liked Prince of Thorns and I wasn’t about to turn a blind eye to King of Thorns (also, the title of King, sounds so much more badass than Prince, methinks ^_^). ![]()
