Review: The White Tower
The White Tower by Michael Wisehart My rating: 3 of 5 stars 3 1/2 stars. If you like big, meaty, epic fantasies, this could be just what you're looking for. I wanted to rate it higher, as I really enjoyed this one. But where it scratched the surface of being something great, it never really got there. As a first book in a series, I don't have any worries that the overall story will click into place and be satisfying, but at this stage in the game I find myself wanting more. That is a good thing too, as I'm intrigued enough to want to continue... The execution was pretty good and the characters were interesting. It just felt a bit long winded at times and I did get confused by the sheer volume of characters and side stories going on. Still, I'm looking forward to the second book, and to the side/prequel series that's already been started. I will also add here that the audio as read by Tim Gerard Reynolds makes the story more enjoya...
