Thief of Camorr

Dragon's Deep - Cecelia Holland - Four of five starsA good start to an anthology. Didn't want to put it down and had a stable ending that didn't feel too quick or too slow. Vici - Naomi Novik - Three of five starsAmusing but not very memorable. Decently written. Problem is, I'm writing the review a week after reading and it didn't really stick in my mind. Bob Choi's Last Job - Jonathan Stroud - Three of five starsTook me ages to finish, but then I wished it were longer.Are You Afflicted with Dragons? - Kage Baker - Four of Five StarsVery good. Cute ending - would have preferred something stronger, but the ending was still good :)The Tsar's Dragons - Jane Yolen and Adam Stemple - Two of Five StarsWasn't able to finish this, as the characters weren't easy to keep straight and it jumped around a lot. A pity, because I loved studying him in school.The Dragon of Direfell - Liz Williams - Four of Five starsVery enjoyable to read. Slight twist ending which makes you want to read it again :)Oakland Dragon Blues - Peter S. Beagle - Five of Five StarsUtterly awesome. You could really see this happening in the TV Show "Castle". I think a writer always loves stories tht slightly break the fourth wall, especially when it involves another writer. Humane Killer - Diana Gabaldon and Samuel Sykes - Two of Five StarsAs soon as this one switched to the different POV I lost interest, sadly enough. I enjoyed the beginning but couldn't finish it.Stop! - Garth Nix - Three of Five StarsQuite interesting, an enjoyable read.Ungentle Fire - Sean WilliamsSaving this one until last - so I haven't read it yet - as he's the reason I bought this :)Okay, now I've read it and as always, Sean never fails to impress. I can't wait to read more of his books :)A Stark and wormy Knight - Tad Williams - Five of Five StarsIt's not often someone can write accents and do it well, adding to the story. Tad managed this fantastically. I can't wait to read more by him.None So Blind - Harry Turtledove - One of Five starsCouldn't get into this at all :(JoBoy - Diana Wynne Jones - Four of Five StarsVery enjoyable. Liked this one quite a bit.Puz_le - Gregory Maguire - Three of Five StarsGood enough, but lacked the zing my other favourites in this so far.After the Third Kiss - Bruce Coville - Five of Five StarsReally very good, lovely ending, couldn't put it down.The War that Winter Is - Tanith Lee - Two of Five StarsCouldn't get into this one either.The Dragon's Tale - Tamora Pierce - Three of Five StarsI think my problem was that I read her when I was younger, so I was expecting too much. There's nothing wrong with this short story, but it also didn't interest me as much as I thought it would/should.Dragon Storm - Mary Rosenblum - Two of Five StarsCouldn't get into it.The Dragaman's Bride - Andy Duncan - Two of Five StarsCouldn't get into it.
