This book was pretty frustrating. I enjoyed by time with The House Wars and was trying to follow the recommended reading order. So I started this book hoping I’d find it as captivating. However, I find everything in this book to be a little too complicated. I almost feel like I’ve started the second book in a series rather than the first.
The world feels huge but as a reader you’re not really setup for it. There’s too many characters, too many titles, and all of it is thrown at you very fast. Not to mention it can sometimes be hard to know who’s talking to who in a given moment.
I’ve seen people say this book really takes off at the 50% mark, but I can’t get there. Around page 150 I started skimming, and before I knew it I wasn't sure what was going on, and couldn’t be …

I’ve seen people say this book really takes off at the 50% mark, but I can’t get there. Around page 150 I started skimming, and before I knew it I wasn't sure what was going on, and couldn’t be bothered to care anymore. I hate not finishing books, but this is way too work for fantasy. A shame because I had high hopes that I’d get through all Michelle West’s books eventually. But I’m stopping here for now
I just finished this book and enjoyed it a lot. It did not contain as much TNG information as I thought it would, but Stewart told the story of his earlier life in that way that I felt to be extremely charming. It could be that I’m so familiar with his voice and mannerisms that I can’t help but hear his voice in my head when he says things like, “delightful!” as I’m reading along.
When we did reach the point of his career of TNG, and his future movies I felt it didn’t disappoint. At about 450 pages this book feels just long enough, and based on Stewart’s last line I think he understood that anymore would make the book feel too bloated. Overall I’d highly recommend it anyone curious about Patrick Stewart outside of his later works. But even if you aren’t you might be surprised by how …
