David McK (3633 KP) rated Dead Witch Walking (The Hollows, #1) in Books

Jan 30, 2019

The first in Kim Harriosn's Rachel Morgan series of books, I found that, while the novel has a nice conceit, this book is actually quite hard to get into and was a little on the slow side. I think this is due, in part, to the dense prose used throughout: there were more than a few occasions where I caught myself wondering if I had previously missed something, and ended up skimming back to see if I actually had or not.

On the plus side, the world it is set in feels pretty 'real', the charcters (even the villains) are all pretty well developed, and it sets itself up well for the inevitable sequels.

Exceptional platforming fun!

In early 2018, my love for the gaming genre was rediscovered with Hollow Knight. I've been spoilt with narrative marvels and open world paradises, that when I began Rayman Legends, I also rediscovered my childhood.

Everything about Rayman Legends is fun. From the bonkers and beautiful worlds that are so detailed and masterfully crafted, to the meticulously designed levels, which sometimes bounce along to popular songs, this game is the real deal. It deserves to be mentioned with the likes of Super Mario Bros. There, I said it.
