Patricia Wrede’s The Harp of Imach Thyssel
In the third Lyra novel, a young minstrel and his friend (the song of a Duke) find a powerful magical harp of legend, and soon several people with a variety of motives are on their trail, hoping to steal it. I liked the characters here (the love interest is a lot of fun) but the plot feels more like an outline than a novel. Everything wraps up too quickly, and it follows the same story beats as the previous ones. I really need this series to be like building to something. I mean, this was /fine/, just not particularly compelling. B.
