Lord of Souls

I have started to read George Keyes's new Elder Scrolls book Lord of Souls-sequel to Infernal City-. My own opinion is that(my pdf is 700 pages, I am at 200) Lord of Souls' literary style is lot better than Infernal City. I've read it in English, as I am not a native speaker I had problems to understand it espically place descriptions. This tims, new book is lot more dialogue based, which makes it lot easier and fun to read. My main ciritisism about Infernal City was that, if you are writing about a world was actually created for a video-game you should focus less on description as most of the people who played the games can imagine those places probably better than you can.

I can give no major spoilers at the moment but things are turning interesting as well.

Great points Darth South. I've also read The Infernal City and will probably get Lord of Souls soon. Tell me how you like it after you've read the whole thing.
