I continue to be wowed by the wit and intelligence in this series. The characters are so well developed psychologically and emotionally, with real flaws, that it actually hurts me when things go wrong. And they do go spectacularly wrong. The characters may be kick-ass magicians but they're up against bigger stuff than that. I would have given this book five stars if it hadn't taken me awhile to settle into the story. That could have been my own preoccupation with life (that's one of those variables that's hard to quantify) or it could be the story was slow to hook me. I felt a little distracted at first with the two POV characters, but, as the story progressed the importance of those two storylines became enormous. These characters grow in deep, meaningful ways. As with the first book, The Magicians, the writing is fresh and packs a punch, often with wry humor, especially Quentin's voice. I love the way Grossman weaves science, magic, everyday modern life into the way the magicians function. And often he does it in a way that makes me laugh out loud. When one magician elegantly moves them through a portal from Italy to a park in a small town in England, Grossman writes: This kind of precision over that much distance hadn't been possible even a few years ago, but Google Street View was an absolute boon to the art and craft of creating long-distance portals. And here's a hilarious comment from Julia's POV: They pushed on into astrology and ocean magic and even oneiromancy--dream magic. Turns out you can cast some truly amazing shit in your dreams. But after you wake up it all seems kind of pointless, and nobody really wants to hear about it. And finally, I'll end this review with one more snippet--a description that is so fresh and funny, I'm still smiling: The tide was out, and the sea was not so much calm as limp. Every few minutes it worked up enough energy for a wave that rose up half a foot and then flopped onto the strand with a startling smack, as if to remind everyone that it was still there.

Great premise, poorly done. Too bad; could have been great!

Portrays the difficulties that an interracial couple encounter when the husband's mother comes to live with the couple (from China) and is extremely overbearing. An interesting commentary on marriage and on interracial relationships.
As before, Larsson seems to wallow in depravity. The book also wastes a lot of time early on (do we really need several pages on Lisbeth's shopping spree?). But the last couple of hundred pages are worth the wait.

I was pretty discouraged at the prospect of peace in the Middle East before I read Friedman's book. “From Beirut to Jerusalem” was published in April 1989; I finished it last Sunday (June 07, 2009) went down to have breakfast, turned on the television show THIS WEEK with George Stephanopoulos and the discussion was on the occupied territories in Israel. As I ate my breakfast the issues being discussed WERE EXACTLY THE SAME AS THEY WERE IN 1989! Needless to say now I am even more discouraged than I was before for the peace process.

I'd file this under "historical fiction light," not unlike The Boleyn Girl or similar novels. Overall, I thought it was an impressive first book by a new author, however, at times it didn't seem to have a plot line, rather pulled together difference incidents... sometimes you'd get a daily blow by blow and then other times, six months had gone by. I couldn't help comparing it to the Cleopatra book by Margaret George-- and this wasn't anywhere close to the same kind of detail, hence the three stars.
