The First Binding by R.R. Virdi



 Ari is a storyteller.  The book is his story.  It is well-written and captivating and frustrating.   Virdi jumps all over the place in his tale-telling.  Back story is good, side stories and future stories and what the heck is that in here for stories aren’t as good to me.   I really enjoyed the book but admittedly I’m fond of a more linear approach.

The book is set in a feudalistic world with some Fagan components.  Implacable supernatural enemies and powerful political forces are abundant in the book.  Ari is a complex child and an adult with a self-created complex identity.

Despite my frustrations, I will be reading the next volume.  I enjoyed it but am just not fond of the story structure.
