** spoiler alert ** The Jack Reacher series was recommended to me by a couple of people and was also referenced in a book that I had just finished reading, so I thought I’d better check it out. I read book #1 in the series and, although it was pretty fast paced, thought it was like reading an old Steven Segal movie. I thought maybe the books get better as they go along, so I skipped forward to 61 Hours: Jack Reacher # 14. It was so hard to convince myself not to quit the book 1/3 of the way in… then ½ way in… then 2/3 of the way in. It took me almost three weeks to finish the damn thing because it just couldn’t hold my interest. Winter is cold in South Dakota. There’s lots of snow. Lots of down parkas. Cold wind that hurts your face. It’s cold. There’s snow. Jack Reacher is a mysterious super tough, super cool drifter. Child reiterates at least 50 pages of the same descriptions as the previous Reacher book. I guess I can assume this description is repeated in every book of the series? Blah. It’s cold. Very cold. Beyond that, the plot seemed slow and predictable, and had almost no depth or complexity. I knew Holland was the killer. I knew Reacher was going to kill Holland and Plato at the end. The pseudo-romance between Reacher and Susan just seemed out of place and kind of stupid, really. And the ending was a huge disappointment. A one-dimensional plot featuring one-dimensional characters. Blah. I sure hope Reacher was able to return Kim’s parka.

The second book and sixth story in the Neveryona series, and the first novel length story. It is the story of Pryn who leaves her northern smalltown life and world on the wings of a dragon. Her adventure takes her through the intricacies of Kolhari [the capital of this country] where she meets a powerful merchant and Gorgik the Liberator. From there she heads south, travels with smugglers, finds herself in a new small town, which she quickly leaves, to find herself working at a brewery, formerly owned by a noble family, which she then encounters and must flee from. More than her physical journey is her mental journey, which we take with her. The world expands to an unimaginable degree, only for her to realise that nothing's different, no matter how far she goes. Like the previous story, it is very much concerned with power and the interplay of those who have and those who do not. It is about language, but mostly it is about the nature and power of stories. Everywhere she goes, she finds people who want to impose a life upon her, to make her who they want, whether it be rebel, slave, lover, whore, or more or less. She finds, here, on her journey, the ability to define herself and choose which version of her is the one she wants to be, is the one she actually is. There are some truly mindblowing passages in here that make you question so many things, from life to words to knowledge itself. It is the most cohesive book of the series, I think, but it meanders widely and is low on action, so if that's the kind of fantasy you're looking for, you're in the completely wrong series here. It is concerned with ideas most of all, and with the nature of stories at the center. It's about maps and mirrors, what these signs mean, as metaphors, as actual objects, and what the relation between the two is. And that interplay, that relationship, the significance of the signs, is not at all a simple answer. Highly recommended.
