Review: Archon


Archon
Archon by Sabrina Benulis

My rating: 1 of 5 stars



Can I give it a half star?
Reminded me a bit of [a:C.S. Friedman|1276004|C.S. Friedman|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1257214912p2/1276004.jpg], whose ColdFire trilogy I read once because it was there (belonged to my ex, with whom I was living). I don't usually do horror-y things, haven't even read any Lovecraft. And I was much more in the mood for [a:Sharon Shinn|28544|Sharon Shinn|http://d.gr-assets.com/authors/1218995575p2/28544.jpg]'s angels. I guess I didn't read the blurb carefully enough.
It wasn't bad, it just didn't suck me in, and I have other books to read. It's rare that I don't just finish something because I'm already partway through, but I just finished rereading [b:The Renegades of Pern|20082|The Renegades of Pern (Pern, #10)|Anne McCaffrey|http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1283622741s/20082.jpg|555] all the way through, which didn't hold up and wasn't really worth the slog. So this one went back to the library.
