Book Review of The Naming (Pellinor, Bk 1)

The Naming (Pellinor, Bk 1)
reviewed on


I'm torn about this series. The first two books were quite possibly the best books I've ever read. The main character is a strong woman with great character. The characters and plot are intriguing and I couldn't put the first two books down.

I was really disappointed when the third book had a different character as the main character. It wasn't too bad of a book, but a huge disappointment when that character wasn't the one that I loved.

Unfortunately, I found the last book to be totally disappointing. It was confusing, hard to follow and lacked any catharsis. I didn't find there was much wrap up and the conclusion just didn't make sense to me. I honestly don't know how that last book could have come from the same author.

So, if you're happy with reading a totally incredible book that doesn't really have an ending, I recommend reading this one and book two in the series. But if you won't be satisfied until you finish the series, and a bad ending would ruin the whole series for you, then perhaps just skip it all together.
