The Magic of Recluce by L.E. Modesitt Jr.

2.0

I really enjoyed the beginning. His descriptive world building had me hooked. It’s told in first person which I also love. The main character was on a quest to figure out what kind of wizard he wanted to be and he had an old wizard companion for part of the story. All of these things I love but this guy writes so slow. Ridiculously slow with little pay off. This is a long series so it obviously gets better but it’s such a commitment that I don’t even want to continue. I feel the same way about Ursula K Le Guin’s writing as I do this guy so if you enjoy her then I say give this guy a shot.
