Joseph Mckenna joemckenna — Oh my god. I have never read a YA novel before as intense as this one. It's my first Melina Marchetta book, and sure, I've heard/read a lot of promising reviews about her works, but this was beyond everything I expected. Confudragging for the first few chapters, plus the promise of it being a looong read, but hold on. It's going to be all worth it. And yes, the narrative is a bit too grown-up for my taste but that might just be because you and I've grown so accustomed to hearing American YA character voices. Read some more and you'll realize it's really very beautifully written, so forget that previous sentence. And Marchetta surely knows how suspense works with plot, because chapter by chapter, her story goes from wtf is this to WHOA WAIT to FUUUUU to pausing for a while to reflect on the awesomeness that just hit you because that's how affecting the story is. I don't want to give away anything more because this is one of those kind of books that I'd like very much for my fellow readers to fully experience as it is on their own, but lemme just say that I am definitely stacking up on some more Marchetta books, and Aussie YA novels, at that.

Lucas Laurent _ucaslaurent — This is a book that could finally have unseated Egerton Castle's appallingly Victorian "Schools and Masters of Fence" as the definitive book on the history of swordsmanship. Instead, the author often parrots the same misconceptions or invents entirely new ones. It is an entertaining and engaging book, but those looking for an accurate history of swords and sword-fighters would be better served to read Sydney Anglo's "Marital Arts of Renaissance Europe" and J. Christoph Amberger's "Secret History of the Sword." All in all, this book is nothing special, and should be regarded as a decently-written curiosity or tribute by the author to a subject he obviously loves rather than a reliable hoplological work.
