Little Known History
Revisado: 05-19-24
Tibet has always been a mystery to most of us in the west. Harvey Rice and Jackie Cole brought clarity to the horrendous treatment of those in Tibet who were devotees of Bon, or any religion at all, by the Chinese government.
Yes I knew of the invasion and take over of Tibet, but this tells the personal stories of Bon and the Monks escaping, their devotion to Bon, and of Tibetan culture and isolation from the rest of the world. An interesting and informative read! I recommend it!

Historia
Nesta Archeron has always been prickly-proud, swift to anger, and slow to forgive. And ever since being forced into the Cauldron and becoming High Fae against her will, she's struggled to find a place for herself within the strange, deadly world she inhabits. Against the sweeping backdrop of a world seared by war and plagued with uncertainty, Nesta and Cassian battle monsters from within and without as they search for acceptance - and healing - in each other's arms.

Couldn’t put it down
Revisado: 06-14-23
The main character, Nesta, was difficult for me in the beginning. However watching how her transformation unfold was satisfying. Ms Maas worked through this unfolding in a careful way that took me from annoyance to understanding to love. It has everything! Romance, adventure and erotica. I recommend this book. Enjoy!

Historia
Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Wonderful Premise, at times transporting,
Revisado: 08-23-16
while I enjoyed the story line, I found the reading of the female lead made her sound completely annoying. I know the change in her character came as a result of her experiences but it seemed unbelievable to me that any really strong man would fall for her. Having said that I did enjoy the premise and was stirred by the ending. Still worth reading.
