Series: The Riyria Revelations
by Author Michael J. Sullivan
Birodalom születik (2013)
I enjoyed this book, just not much as the first two. It was a good third book and certainly laid out all of the major pieces on the game board, so to speak. A lot of new characters were introduced, which sometimes made it difficult to follow, and perhaps my all time favorite chapter - 14 - from ...
De Opkomst van Nyphron (2013)
End of Nyphron rising. This story is really starting to gain momentum. I am really enjoying the character building of not only the two main characters but some of the side characters too. In this story we are finally given a hint, a sliver of a glimpse at the bigger picture. Sullivan is really pr...
Der Turm von Avempartha (2009)
The second book in this series has me wanting more. But not in a sense that it has built more of the story and I can't wait for the next installment, more along the lines that I was hoping for a lot more from this story and didn't get it. There are some developments in the main plot and the chara...
De Elfentoren (2009)
An fun tale -- not without flaws, but still fun. The story itself is fine, but the our two thief heroes is what makes these books so fun -- they just have good chemistry. Like any good buddy cop movie they have conflicting motivations and personalities, but their playful disagreements are fun a...
La Espada de Avempartha (2009)
When Royce and Hadrian are hired to steal a sword from an elven tower and save a young woman's village, they are once again at the center of conspiracy. Michael Sullivan exceeds his earlier success with his latest installment of the Riyria Conspiracy. This novel will keep you up to late in the ni...
Het Koningscomplot (2008)
I chose to read this series because months after reading game of thrones I needed another great fantasy series to sate my needs. This book while not on the same level as GRRM was still very good. The best way to describe it was just pure fun! It was just a great book with fun adventure and charac...
La Conspiración de Melengar (2008)
When the murderer of the king frames two thieves for hire for the assassin, he couldn't have done a poorer job choosing...Our main protagonists (Riyria) Royce and Hadrian are both wonderful characters. In fact, most characters introduced in this book are quite good- whether it be the entitled an...
Zdradziecki plan (2010)
Meets the expectations, but follows a very predictable path. A smooth and pleasant reading experience that makes you want to read the last (6th) part as soon as you finish with Wintertide, but ... I have a guts feeling that in 3 weeks time I won't even remember what was it about.On the pluses sid...
Wintertij (2010)
The imagery in this book was fantastic. I don't know how else to say it. I'm a big fan of worldbuilding when it comes to fantasy, and Michael did an excellent job 'taking' the reader to Wintertide and feeling, smelling and hearing what goes on during the festival. And like the previous four boo...
Wintertide (The Riyria Revelations, #5) (2010)
Where to begin with this book... Trying to keep this short and spoiler free - Amelia has to be one of the worst POV characters in the genre. This book starts out great, ends great, middle section - not so much. Amelia's story (that started in the last book) began with promise - simple maid, treat...
Nyphron Rising (2009)
Vol 3 – Nyphron Rising 5-StarsIn my last review covering Thief of Swords – book 1: Vol 1 and 2, I mentioned it was a struggle to keep reading and not give up in it, but half way through book 2 it had finally paid off, and I immediately started on this one without any delay. Vol. 3 Slows down just...
Avempartha (2009)
I liked this book a little more than the first one in that while it continued to have vibrant characters (including of course, all the new ones) and obviously the same background, the storyline was little less predictable. Unfortunately this book took a slightly darker turn which while I probab...
Percepliquis (2012)
This was a great finish to a series that only got stronger as it progressed. What at first seems like a two-buddies-against-the-world story really evolves into much more. Action never strays from the two main characters for long, but supporting characters are fleshed out nicely and, looking bac...
Pradawna Stolica (2013)
I cannot begin to describe this series, honestly. It's always difficult to review your favourite books, as it happens this made it to my favourites. When I started this series, I didn't know what to expect, but the reviews were positive and I thought I'd give it a try. How glad I am I did? This w...
Wintertide (2010)
No spoilers.I wish I didn't let these books sit that long on my TBR. This is the fifth of a six book series, and I have to say that it keeps getting better and better with each book, as a bit more is uncovered of the world and of the characters. Interesting storyline and twist at the end, and a...
The Crown Conspiracy (2008)
This is officially my new favorite series. I loved the adventure, suspense, banter & history. The plot was well written & interesting. I loved both Hadrian & Royce. Even Alric & his sister grew on me. I think I'm just a sucker for books with new worlds & history in them like game of thrones & suc...
