Reviews for "The Witch King's Promise: A Path to Immortality or a Faustian Bargain?"
1. Jane - 2 stars - I had high hopes for "Promise of the Witch King" after enjoying the first book in the series, but it fell short for me. The pacing was incredibly slow, and I found myself losing interest in the story. The characters also became quite predictable, and their development felt stagnant. Overall, I was disappointed with this installment and don't think I'll be continuing with the series.
2. Mark - 3 stars - While "Promise of the Witch King" had some interesting plot points, I felt that the execution was lacking. The narrative felt disjointed, jumping from one event to another without proper transitions. The world-building, which was a strong aspect of the first book, seemed to take a backseat in this installment. Additionally, I found some of the dialogue to be cheesy and forced. It was an okay read, but not as engaging as I had hoped.
3. Sarah - 2.5 stars - "Promise of the Witch King" seemed to suffer from middle-book syndrome. It lacked the excitement and innovation of the first book, feeling more like a filler between major plot points. The character interactions felt forced and cliché, and there wasn't much character growth. The action scenes were also few and far between, making the story drag. I'm unsure if I'll continue with the series after this disappointment.
