Tales of the Otori by Lian Hearn

What do people think of this series? Should of stayed a trilogy? Good how it was? Haven't heard of it? Any comments welcome =)

Worth reading, but nothing special.

Certainly something a bit different.

Thanks for commenting =) Just have a question for the sake of detail and interest. Where would you say the books were lacking? What aspects in particular?

[Brendan]

The first book grabbed me really hard, sucked me right in and I was pumped for the series, but as each book went further I lost interest.

Certainly worth reading if anyone wants something different, or interested in trying an Aussie author.

I've only read Across the Nightingale Floor and I thought it was pretty good.

The only concern I had was Lian Hearn didn't spend enough time developing the characters, otherwise it's a fantastic read.

My grandad leant me the book and we're both looking for Grass For His Pillow at the moment; book-stores aren't exactly extensive in this country.
