5,0 su 5 stelle Elaborate World With Well Developed Characters
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 11 giugno 2012
Acquisto verificato
Dawn Sinclair creates an elaborate world populated by thoroughly developed and interesting characters. These characters are all part of a search for an answer to the eternal question of "who am I?" The reader is seduced into the story by the beautiful poetic writing, the stunning scenery, and the concerns of the characters. But all is not as it seems. The inhabitants of the seven cities are shown to be extremely wanting. For example, concerning their entertainment: "it was a sickening hypocrisy. The athletes were second to the blood, and the blood was secondary to the cruelty. Yet the Games were purported to be an artistic display of human skills." Even our early hero, who you will root for, has his veneer stripped away as he learns he cannot get what he wants. He laments, "how will I be able to sustain the deception then? You can't expect me to live my whole life as a lie?" As his world dissolves around him, he realizes that "there is no freedom in death. There is only death in death." This type of no-nonsense statement is what makes The Eternal Question so worth reading. Layer after layer of hypocrisy and delusion are peeled away from the characters, leaving them literally staring into Oblivion and coming to startlingly simple yet profoundly correct realizations. Even the Immortals come to wonder "what was the point of having everything one could desire, without the joy of its achievement? What delight could be derived from pride borne not of feats accomplished but of unmerited superiority and nothing else?" I wished that the story was a little shorter, and that the story had maybe one less plot line, because I wanted the focus to be on Rowan and Melody. But that is perhaps just the hopeless romantic in me... Regardless of these two minor criticisms, I highly recommend The Eternal Question, and caution the reader to be prepared to be challenged even while they are entertained.

I liked this book, because it was not focused only on the action and suspense (which are both good as well), but also on the more philosophical aspects.
What I did not like were the long descriptions, which were really difficult to read in some places. After all, it is not a supposed to be a dissertation of some kind, but a book one would read to enjoy. Too much telling and not enough showing.
Nevertheless it is a pleasant reading and a bit different than many others in the genre.

5,0 su 5 stelle A page turner until the end...
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 6 settembre 2012

Having also read and thoroughly enjoyed Sinclair's first book, Children of Hamlin, I wasn't exactly surprised by how much I enjoyed this book. I am not someone who often reads a lot of fantasy, but I have always believed that a good book defies all genres. This was certainly the case with The Eternal Question. The writer's careful descriptions bring an immediate sense of life to the characters and scenes she writes. Unfolding to me visually with every line I read until I felt like an observer. The descriptions in themselves were beautifully crafted. This writer has a definite gift with words. She can conjure images that are devastatingly beautiful or absolutely horrific, or even both at the same time. I found the story itself to be captivating from the very first page. Balanced with enough details to paint a picture in my mind, but not too many to get bogged down in specifics. Though I have very little time in general to pick up a book and read, I found that once I did make time for this story it was very hard to put down. The prologue piqued my interest easily and gave me an appetite for more, and though my questions were not fully answered until the end of the book, the journey getting there was never dull. I enjoyed the fact that each character took turns having their part of the story told in bits and pieces that could be put together as the story progressed until all parts came together in the end. I could definitely have kept reading to find out what happens next, and will be very interested in a sequel or companion story should Ms Sinclair ever write one.

This book is extremely well written, the story is entertaining, complex and full of twists and turns. Like the title suggests, it is a deeply philosophical novel, exploring disturbing human emotions and character traits including the dark side of humanity. There were many times that I simply could not look at some of the graphic, and so well worded and descriptive passages depicting the worst in humanity, causing me to lose a bit of the story. I was, however able to pick up on what was going on anyway, so I did not lose the thread of the story. That was important, since all of the pieces of this story fit together in a complex jigsaw puzzle way, where at the end you are rewarded with that "ah ha" moment and see pay off after pay off. There are elements of Greek tragedy combined with a sort of modernistic setting that especially appealed to me. The characters are quite well developed, although due to the graphic nature of some of the more disturbing aspects, I was unable to fully appreciate and engage. Being the sensitive type, for whom images never go away, there are movies I would love to see but cannot, simply because I am not willing to spend extra time on my therapist's couch. I would put this book into that category, if it were made into a movie, however, because it is a book, I was at least able to participate in, and enjoy most of it. I highly recommend this epic and intricately woven story, you will not regret your purchase of this novel.

This review will be totally biased, I'm afraid. I first met the author several years back, and developed a great appreciation for her lyrical work with a variety of musicians, as well her friendship. Having read the Children of Hamelin, I was anxious to get to this one, and have been very pleased with what I've found. A first rate fantasy, with elements of suspense, action/adventure and horror, plots and sub-plots galore as this story barrels along. Her characters are well-drawn, and most of whom I'd like to get to know better, several others I was glad to see meet an early demise in this novel! Twas a great read, thought provoking and fun. Only complaint was that it ended too soon, but I hear her next novel might take this tale a little further. Great job, Dawnie!
