Amazing and perilous quest, Jacqueline Carey continues to make us into a parallel world so close and distant from ours. A flamboyant and dark fresco, or pain and death alongside the more life than love and goodness.
Worse than the first, with pure Doeuvre Ms. Carey continues to make us laugh and cry suffer laugh with Phaedra.
Do not put in the sensitive hands, but to all those who love the great quests and immeasurable sacrifices.
This latest installment of the trilogy about Phaedra is clearly cut into three pieces. What is unfortunate is that this division is also visible. It was almost like reading the to have a blank page between. Or read another livre.Un especially regret that the three largest parties are not equal sizes or qualities.
The first concerns the search for Imriel, the second goes to the harem - and particularly trying to read - and the last occurs in an alternative Egypt.
While the first part maintains the tone fairly typical of the first when Phaedra is Earth Angel can not be said of the other two. Indeed, while the Phaedrus passage of the story the harem was a little turned the heart. Descriptions are floods and detailed facts rather sickening. There are scenes I would have preferred to have simply suggested that detailed. Especially the sex scenes. But the author wanted to make us live the ordeal of her heroine and I winced more than once. It is inconceivable that someone can survive this.
The last part Hyacinthe closes the issue that is still a prisoner on his island. Phaedra has indeed never abandoned the idea of lifting the geis hanging over him, especially because it has never forgiven the sacrifice. Unfortunately, if the description of the trip is beautiful, the end is too easy for my taste. After the adventures of an incredible intensity, we would have liked such a stellar final. I acknowledge that it is difficult to conclude, but can however help but be a little disappointed.
