Required Reading

Life is complicated enough without getting into hotwater with federal agencies so: TAKE NOTE Many things I review I received at no charge in exchange for an honest review. Consider this as informing you that ALL things I review may have been gotten at no charge. Realistically about 40% but in order to keep things above board just assume that I got the stuff free. I do not collect information on my readers. If cookies or other tracking stuff is used on my blogs it is due to BLOGGER not ME. Apparently the European Union's new rules state I need to inform you if cookies are being use. If they are it isn't byu me, consider yourself INFORMED.
Words like, “sponsored,” “promotion,” “paid ad” or even just “ad” are clear ways to disclose that you’re being paid to share information and links so BE AWARE that some of what I write can be described as an AD by the government. BTW I will NEVER say a product is great, super or even acceptable if it isn't, whether I got it free or NOT!

Fortress of Glass by David Drake


This is the first book in the Crown of the Isles series.   A word of caution, it bounces all over the place.   Drake leaves a group of characters in a cliff hanger and moves to the next bunch and does the same to them.   If you are easily confused by quick changes you might duck this one.   A young ruler, Garric, is doing a royal procession across the isles which used to be under one rule.  In his head is a ghost of the last ruler of the Kingdom of the Isles.  I vaguely recall that this builds on the Lord of the Isles series but it is over twenty years ago that I read it.   His procession is interrupted by a wizard’s feud.

Bottom line is that I enjoyed the book.  It was a bit confusing but I liked the characters and their methodology.
