Songs of the Dead by Brandon SandersonMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Thanks to Netgalley and Saga Press for the pre-release copy of Songs of the Dead by Brandon Sanderson and Peter Orullian. Below is my honest review.
Meh. I hate to say that about a book with BrandoSando's name on it, but meh.
It dragged... a lot. It felt like a lot of info dumping instead of world building. And gosh, I was so sick of hearing about the life-saving power of metal music. Like other reviewers have pointed out, there was a ton of telling instead of showing, too, which also contributed to how the book felt unpolished.
All in all, I gave it 2.5 stars, and since 2 didn't seem right, because it wasn't AWFUL, just not my jam, I rounded up to 3.
