Book Reviews of Fatal Revenant: The Last Chronicles of Thomas Covenant
Book Review: A very long read
Summary: 3 Stars
I was probably 12 when I first read Lord Fouls Bane. I remember the emotional impact of the series. Foamfollower and Mhoram are possibly my two favorite characters ever (sorry Bilbo). The beauty of the Land and the emotional depth of its inhabitants was captivating and inspiring. When Covenant threatened to "bring Fouls Creche down around his ears," I cheered. I stayed awake nights to read those books.
That is truly lost here. I bought the book when it first came out and have just now finished. I believe that I moved a Terry Brooks trilogy and a WWII book ahead of it -- after I had started to read it. It is just too slow. Everyone is too enigmatic. Towards the end, it takes like 50 pages to go through the woods to Andelain. I have to ask myself if I would read this if it weren't for the earlier books.
Please don't get me wrong, It is worth reading - I'll certainly buy the remaining books in the series. I guess that's the puissance of the series over me. Sorry, I meant POWER. I understand using alternate words occasionally, but he must have used find and replace to change every use of the word power to puissance. Anyway, I hope that this picks up now that we've added, hopefully, the last character.
