![]() My main problem with the story was suspension of disbelief. I liked the focus on farming, planting and harvesting food, and that the people who survived were the ones who realised that they needed to get crops planted so that they'd be able to eat over the winter. I liked the various societies that formed up around lucky, charismatic leaders, and the ways people tried to resolve the inevitable problems. I liked the realism of people getting hurt and dying when they did stupid things. ![]() ![]() To be fair, though, Juniper does improve over the novel and while there's just as much Wicca thrown in your face the whole way through it gets easier to tune it out and focus on events.Īs an avid D&D player who probably knows too much about various historical weapons, I liked the practicality of the weapons and tactics used. I'm not anti-witch, just anti bad writing and whiny characters who call on their deity/deities every 5 lines. ![]() The characters are well written and mostly sympathetic, although the level of Wiccan background information jammed in there was annoying and tended to throw me out of the story and also make me initially dislike one of the main characters. ![]()
