I like it, both the book and series so far, there is action and magic, good characters, many characters, war and battles. My only gripe is the amount of rape that is talked about on almost every second page. I wonder if there is a single woman in the whole Midcyru who hasn't been raped repeatedly. Really? What a world to live in, where most of the women are 'whores' and looked at as objects for men to enjoy when and where and how much they want to. I am not a feminist, but this book made me wonder if this is all that is going on in male authors' heads. Tras El camino de las sombras, que nos introducía en el rico universo mítico y onírico del reino de Cenaria, en la segunda entrega ya se ha consumado la invasión de dicho reino a manos de los ejércitos de Khalidor. La población ha sido sometida, y el único foco de resistencia es el Sa’kagé, la gran organización del hampa. Su única esperanza es convencer a Kylar, el asesino más letal del reino, de que se una a la causa. Pero Kylar ya había decidido abandonar para siempre el reino de las sombras y vivir en paz con su nueva familia. again, Brent weeks wrote a captivating tale. when I first started the book I was apprehensive about whether or not it would be as good as the first book, but as soon as I read the first passage of Logan gyre in the hole I was hooked all over again. it had twists and turns, and I found myself loving and hating characters and wanting to turn the page over and over. his writing has improved over the first book but my opinion remains the same. his writing is absolutely terrible but the story is excellent. I consider this a guilty pleasure of sorts in that regard. my other gripes are how he throws in characters that seem arbitrary, and he uses rape and sex as loosely as a gratuitous video game. that bothered me a lot. but I tried not to let that bother me, and I found the tale to be very gratifying. the ending was superb. I am excited to read the finale in a week. sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica

Het eerste wat me opviel toen ik de achterkant las, is dat ze de naam Kylar gebruiken, maar het in het verhaal zelf over Dodar hebben. Hoewel Kylar veel beter klinkt, is de vertaling op zich niet slecht, al vind ik het persoonlijk nooit zo geslaagd om namen te vertalen. Op dit foutje op de achterkant na, is het een boek geworden dat nog een beetje beter is dan De weg van schaduw, waar ik al erg van genoten heb. Ik hou wel van duistere verhalen, vol wreedheid en wanhoop. Toch is dit boek veel meer dan alleen maar een optelling van wreedheden. Er spreekt ook hoop uit; er blijft steeds een lichtje aan het eind van de donkere tunnel. Elke speler in dit verhaal heeft meer richting gekregen, een doel om naar te streven. Het verhaal op zich is in dit deel net iets meer in balans, vooral het politieke deel wordt geloofwaardiger beschreven. De magie van Dodar komt steeds beter tot zijn recht, maar er blijven genoeg vragen over om mij verlangend uit te laten kijken naar deel drie.
