Review: The Bird King by G. Willow Wilson
I read sample of this on Bookish first and I really enjoyed what I read. I read other books in that time era so I know there is some political things happening as well.
Knowing all that I dove into the story, that I started liking while reading the sample.
I really enjoyed the world, that Wilson created it was very colorful and pretty descriptive. I loved the characters just as much if not even more so. It was so easy to get into the world and relate to the charterers in some way. I also enjoyed the story a lot and yet I wished I had more of it.
That being said I felt like that there was way too much background of the political war brewing and happening on the book. Yes, there was but in the end I wanted a fantasy and not a history book. This is what it felt at times. While some of it would have been okay and I read in other books about, I think it could have been balanced more.
Overall I enjoyed the world, story and people but some parts just seem to long and tiring with too much historical politics dumped in.
