Negative Positive
Title: Never wholly believe others' opinions (this included)
Review: I am sorry but I was never able to appreciate this book. I found the plot boring, the characters uninteresting and no ingenious ideas whatever. It was not unconvincing; there simply wasn't anything to grab your attention. Moreover, I thought the style a bit similar to the unfeelingness of cyberpunk -- and since I take great delight in fantasy, cyberpunk is the last thing I'd like a fantasy book to remind me of. The problem is that I read "Lords of the Sky" immediately after Zelazny's Amber series -- how is it possible to rate these two works equally? (Also, if it is REALLY better than the rest of Wells' books, you'll have to introduce negative values on your rating scale.)Anyway, you should try it (as well as any other book) yourself. Judgements are always subjective; and tastes vary extremely.
Is the review positive or negative?
