- Latest Review: Infliction Point by Mark Hacker
That's an interesting point of view! The introduction of characters in each chapter could be quite overwhelming but it put the book in a very thought of connection and route.Jay Lu wrote: ↑06 Jan 2024, 08:04 Yes, I think so. The character development in "The Great Migration" by Steve Ramirez was both meaningful and appropriate. The author appears to have used his characters effectively to reveal major background stories and deepen the narrative. For instance, through Luta, readers gain insights into the country's enemy, indicating a well-thought-out character arc. The fact that each chapter introduces a new set of characters intricately connected to the central plot suggests that the character development was carefully crafted to enhance the story's richness and complexity. This level of character development would likely be appreciated by readers who enjoy depth and evolution in characters within a novel.

I can quite understand your point, but I think Bellona has a better development because she is, in some way, the protagonist. The rest of the characters are addictions.

Dorinda’s outrageously juvenile behavior appears to be excused as the overdosing of mushrooms. Once they detox her, she turns into a warrior Wonder Woman, a repentant daddy’s girl, and a friend to her tutor. This is too weak and contrived. She hangs onto her snarky, foul-mouthed ways otherwise. The pieces just fail to fit.
Laena started out as a brave tutor who stood her ground with Dorinda. As the story progresses, she comes off as a weak, blithering fool who knows very little about anything.
The other characters were fine.

I was really hoping we would learn more about what happened because it is so heart-wrenching. The desperation they all felt and the hopelessness of it all was very deeply felt.Kristin Cowan wrote: ↑10 Jan 2024, 19:36 I thoroughly enjoyed the character development EXCEPT for Prince Lamuel and his crew. I don't know what happens in the following books, but assuming his fate is as described at the end of this book, I felt they did not need to be followed as closely.
