Marie Brennan’s Driftwood
I liked the Lady Trent books, so decided to try this book by the same author, about a place where dying worlds come together, and the one man who has lived for generations and seen it all. This book gets at some profound things but it still kind of left me cold. It’s told as a series of stories about the maybe-immortal man, and some are more compelling than others, but also it doesn’t really /lead/ anywhere. I don’t need a pat conclusion but I would have liked more of a point? Very interesting stuff here, but it just didn’t totally come together for me. B.
