The Lost Army of Cambyses by Paul Sussman
3.0
Actually I think it should be 2.5 for this one. The book is fun to read, it has a very nice historical background and the tension builds up nicely. The end however is a little "too-much" for my tastes and it reminded more of a movie than a book. It also fails to in my opinion to wrap things up.
1Q84 by Haruki Murakami
2.0
Actually a 2.5 as I am rather confused about this book. The story and the plot were quite promising but I was deeply troubled by its pace at some points it took effort to keep going. I will not go over any particular details, in one word the general impression it left me was "flat".
Rise of Empire by Michael J. Sullivan
4.0
A perfect continuation of the story. It was enjoyable and densely packed in events and information. Everything I liked in the first books was there and in addition I loved the multitude of plots that run in parallel and of course the conclusion of the "main" plot of this book was genious.
