Amy Kaufman’s Reviews > The Curse of the Bruel Coven > Status Update

Woah, this book goes from 0 to 60 in about 3 pages. No buildup, no real character establishment. Just drops you in. On the one hand, it's good that it doesn't take forever for the action to start; on the other, I would've liked a chapter or two to establish time, place, and minor characterization.
