This was absolutely not a character-driven book, not by far. Four or five characters like Baru, Tain Hu, and Muire Lo aside, the other characters almost sounded the same because they were written without having their personalities explored give me two days and I’ll forget the side characters completely, I already did. It felt like everything happened too fast, relied a lot on coincidence, and most of all, the majority of the characters were so easily forgettable. The prose to me felt like reading a history textbook and I had severe problems immersing myself with Dickinson’s way of writing. Please remember that this is just my opinion, if you loved the book, that’s good for you. So what exactly went wrong here? The way it was written. What’s crazier is that this book really should’ve worked for me, a lot of things I heard about this book sounds like something I usually enjoy, but like always, only after you really start reading the book then you realize that the experience is not as good as what you think it’s going to be. I bought this book in January, I’ve been waiting for the release of The Monster Baru Cormorant before I started this one that’s ten months of anticipation. To be fair, I despised accounting with a fiery passion and my expectation for this book may be too high. You will know because it hurts.”Īnd you were right, the truth is that I’m disappointed and it really hurt.

The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinsonīelieve me, I’m sad at myself for giving this book 1 star rating but I must be honest, this book was a massive struggle for me to finish.
