Aenir: Or, Oddly Craving Sushi
Better than the two previous installments, Aenir is action-packed and quick paced. It is definitely just an another "episode" alongside the story, but for some reason, I felt more invested and intrigued, even though I still have no idea what anything is or what is happening or why.
The magic/world is still a bit fuzzy and unrealistic and a lot things don't add up, which takes me out of the story. The rules of the world aren't fully realized or explained, which is no bueno. Milla is awesome and badass, but poor Tal is quite dumb. Many times he jumps to ridiculously wrong conclusions, only to be corrected later. Plus, he consistently gets injured or impeded in some waits. Also, everytime I read the name "Sushin" I immediately crave sushi. Thanks, Garth!
I GUESS I HAVE TO READ THE NEXT ONE. Ugh. Let's hope it goes somewhere.
