I didnt want this book to end. I deliberately took my time reading this book so that I wouldnt reach the end so quickly.Slaves of the Mastery has a lot of depth to it, as did the book before. Nicholson does a really good job of having different cultures with different beliefs and ways of life in his stories that they become enjoyable to read as our protagonists have to find ways around each culture they are faced with in order to achieve their end goals.5 years after the event of the Wind SingerI really enjoyed this, and more than the first in the series. It's an engaging, enjoyable and thought-provoking read.
This is an all nighter. What's going to happen? How will they get out of this mess? Try as I might, I couldn't go to sleep until I found out.
First off, What I didn't like...I absolutely hated like the implication that in order to be beautiful you must also be waif thin. I liked Sisi's character to a certain degree, but the message she promoted within the book was wrong, there is no other way of describing it. In your quest for that emaciated figure you so desire you must not eat anything for days on end. You must not drink anything more calorific than water. After you have married that all changes, you no longer need to be

As exciting and insightful as I remembered from first reading it. Then depiction of the Singer people was breathtaking and imaginative, just the kind of fantasy a child would love, and the fortitude and loyalty of Kestral and Bowman is just as humbling for an adult reader.
I read these through 2007 and finished the third book in March 2008. These books are one of the few series of YA fantasy I can think of that are UNIQUE. I'd never read anything like them. Nicholson creates a really intriguing world, and keeps adding interesting new elements in each book. He also has great skill at choosing character names!I ended up using the Manth wedding vows from this book as one of the readings at our wedding. They bring tears to my eyes pretty much every time I read them.
