Book Reviews of Wolf of Winter, The
Book Review: A Gripping Book Meets an Immediate Deadline
Summary: 4 Stars
The Wolf of Winter begins in classic Volsky form: high society, interesting characters, shocking scenes, wonderful wordplay and, of course, an (almost) fully realized sense of World. However, Ms. Volsky must have been writing under an imminent deadline for her to have ever conceived of presenting such an ending! The ardent fan will grant Ms. Volsky the awkward splitting of the novel into two parts, and the jump in time, the creulty of Vanion and the gruesomeness of necromancy--but no one can grant the Huckleberry Finnish conclusion, which sums up the defeat of an undefeatable hero/foe, the sudden termination of the interesting if incestuous relationship between uncle and neice, and the inconclusive, non-enlightening last two scenes of a wind-swept woman on a battlement and a gibbering idiot in a cave. Ms. Volsky, PLEASE do not let fame numb your craft!--Emily C. A. Snyder
