The Wilding

by C. S. Friedman

I finished this book back on the 9th. The story takes place in the same 'universe' as Ms. Friedman's first book, In Conquest Born, although several generations later. I wish I could unreservedly recommend the book, but I read it while I was suffering from reader's block so my opinion is tinged with quite a bit of indifference. When I started it, I was very much looking forward to reading it but that malaise I call reader's block settled on me just a few chapters in. I should have put the book down and done something other than read, but I kept plugging away at it. I'm fairly certain it's not a bad book because I actually did finish it. It also had fewer proofing errors than the last few DAW books I've read.
