This could perhaps be considered alternate history - what if the dinosaurs did not go extinct? The Yilane (murgus to humans) co-exist with Stone Age humans on Earth. Normally this co-existence is peaceful, as there is plenty of room for both species. As an Ice Age approaches, the murgus must find warmer places to live, and that puts them in competition with the humans. Led by Kerrick, an escaped murgu slave, the humans fight back. Well written, good plot and good ideas, this is an excellent book. ( ) I did not like this second book as much as the first. It was cut up into too many small pieces with very short paragraphs and sometimes no real linkage to the story's main plot. I suppose it is just setting the basis for the final book. The last 30+ pages bother me... Why should I learn Yilanè writing when there is none in the novel itself? Why should I learn pronunciation? The dictionary is full of words in Margu that are never used in the story and when I had a Yilanè word that I wanted the meaning of... it was not in that dictionary. I might read the last of the series but I won't seriously look for it. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
