The Towers Of The Sunset Book Review

This week, I chose to read The Towers of The Sunset by L.E. Modesitt. The Towers of Sunset tells the story of Creslin, a son of a powerful military commander. Creslin leaves his country to escape an arranged marriage and ends up learning about himself and the outside world. This book is the second book in the Magic of Recluce series.
I liked this book because of how the author broke gender barriers and stereotypes. The author also created a complex plot that is interesting and full of little details. However, the beginning to the book was confusing and hard to understand. After the beginning, however the book sped up and became understandable.
Overall, I liked this book and would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys good fantasy and a detailed plot. This book is certainly not for younger readers, because it has violent scenes and language. This book could be compared to a more complex version of the Hobbit. This book earns an 8/10.

    This sounds interesting, Jonah, and I like that you gave some warning about the beginning of the book & how it does smooth out and become a better read. Also, the advice that it's for older readers.

    That sounds awesome. I will definitely read it. I am having trouble finding old fantasy books, and this one looks really good.
