I have conflicted feelings about this book. The bones and essence of the story are so well done, magical and lyrical and exciting. Mixed around it, however, were undeniably long stretches that just didn't interest me at all. Neumeier did her initial work too well, meaning I was focused Karah and Nemienne's fates and not at all in the mood to change perspective to Leilis and Taudde. I tried not to hold my disappointment against the story, as I tend to get attached to a few characters and disregard the rest, but even once Leilis and Taudde managed to pique my interest there were still passages that seemed unnecessarily long. Beautifully (if long winded-ly) written, HOUSE OF SHADOWS didn't work well for me over all.Full review to follow.
