I liked reading from her perspective as Great Mother, I feel like we didn’t really see much of that from Thorn. I definitely think that she’s had the most interesting story throughout Curse of the Sandtongue in general and I love her shadow powers. I do feel like that’s more understandable in this one though, since this is a very story-driven book and they probably couldn’t dedicate much time to the protagonists’ personalities. Like with most Erin Hunter books, I do think that the protagonists lacked personality. I like this, I’m glad they didn’t drag this series out. So, it looks like instead of having 6 books like Erin Hunter series usually do, Curse of the Sandtongue ended up only lasting for 3 books. I will do a re-read on the first series and see if I still like it now. I'm disappointed because Bravelands was a favourite of mine when I was younger. The characters were not well-rounded and felt stretched thin. The characters from the previous arc were either killed off or written in a very mundane way. The characters had such unfinished story arcs. The great evil felt very weak and not as menacing or hard to beat as Titan. Their stories felt like a bridge to another series. It makes the characters all feel watered down and mundane. Each of them seem like photocopies of the first three protagonists in the Bravelands series. All the characters barely feel developed. Once I did finishing this felt underwhelming. I did not know that the second arc in Curse of the Sandtongue would be a trilogy. *I've decided I won't write long book reviews for books under two stars unless it's a rant or I have a lot to say!*īlood on the Plains was a huge disappointment for me. And that we actually get to see a new Great Parent. Felt like the ending to this particular arc really sucked, although I'm SUPER relieved that Bravelands isn't ending just yet. With that said, I'm still retaining my two star review of this book. I honestly would've read this series forever if they kept putting out books, such a shame they rushed a trash ending instead □□Įdit: OH MY GOD, THERE'S GOING TO BE ANOTHER BRAVELANDS BOOK?! WHAT? I'M SO EXCITED AND CONFUSED. But again, I love Bravelands so much so this is a huge letdown of an ending. Such as Prance's battle with Grandmother. This might've been the worst ending to a series I've ever read, and I would've happily given this book one star if not for some of the badass scenes that managed to exist in this book. They're rushed out the door because they couldn't be bothered to write a full six books for this series. We don't really get to understand these characters' personalities the way we understood The Three Heroes. With that said, they tried to lump four books into one and it clearly shows. WHY?!?! THE SERIES IS OVER, THERE SHOULDN'T BE AN OPEN ENDING. THEY JUST KILLED OFF THE GREAT PARENT WITHOUT DECIDING ON A NEW GREAT PARENT.
