Review of 'Dragonfly in Amber' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I really like this series and enjoy reading it. This is my third read however and I find myself skipping pages to get on with the story. While the story is still good and I love it I do find issue with the writing itself. Mostly it is the weird changes of storytellers perspective and the skipping between timelines. At one point in "Voyager" Claire talks to someone and with barely a new paragraph and no further introduction we find her telling a story about something in the past including a switch from "I" to "she was traveling to ..." Makes me a bit sad I remember devouring these books (and I still do) but I never noticed these style issues before.
