A Great New Addition to a Great Fantasy Series
I love the way Michael J. Sullivan writes. The evocative style of the narrative, the deep and tactile sense of time and place, the beating heart and soul of the relationship between the noble warrior Hadrian and the less than noble assassin/thief Royce are only a few of the things that sets his work and in particular, this series, above the rest. Having come to the end of Hadrian and Royce's partnership in the first trilogy, The Riyria Revelations, the Chronicles goes back and picks the boys up in the early days of their partnership, when they're still trying to figure each other out and who (if anyone) needs the other more. In this story, as Royce is fretting about Gwen (he's always fretting about Gwen) and trying to decide if Hadrian is holding him back or not, Riyria is hired to find out what happened to the daughter of Lord Winter (nothing supernatural or meterological about it, his last name is just Winter) who went off to be married to Duke Leo of Rochelle. If she's kidnapped, they need to rescue her. If she's dead, they need to avenge her...loudly and with very little discretion. Their search takes them straight into a conflict over racism and oppression and putting the rights of one species over another, not to mention magic, golems and the most fascinating literary relationship of the year, between Royce and the boys' new 80-something year old landlord. It's not romantic; Royce hates the old hag, but from that hate comes a surprisingly touching moment of trust and understanding. The books in the Chronicles are meant to be read in whatever order you find them, but it's always good to start at the beginning if you can. Either way, The Disappearance of Winter's Daughter is a great new addition to one of fantasy's best series, by one of it's best authors.
