Review of 'Weaveworld' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Barker's best when writing villains. He gives them real motivations: they're not mindlessly evil, they're vengeful or greedy or so tired that they'll do anything. Overall, this was a good, but not amazing fantasy novel. It was well-layered, with several different threats operating in parallel rather than just being one thing after another. I was surprised by how little of the fantasy world we actually get to see.
