Epic fantasy, first of two books. This book held me enthralled.

In my second atttempt to read this book I realized that there was nothing wrong with the book. The characters were good and engaging, the story is good but I just couldn't get into it. I made it 3/4 through but had no problem leaving the book behind.
So I guess I'm just indifferent to this book.

hmm.. i like the concept, but it drags on so. i really love The Initiate Brother, so i want to like other Sean Russell but i can't get into it. i didn't realize when i picked it up that it was connected to Under The Vaulted Hills, I read that a few years back and got impatient with all the cave-wandering. this is somewhat similar, except they're on a sailing ship. i think the characters don't have enough depth to keep it afloat.. there's too much mystery and scheming and not enough humanity.

Sean Russell's rich and poetic style is marvellously engaging and perfectly suited to both high society schemes and high seas adventure. World Without End is a compelling and deftly crafted blend of adventure, mystery and epic fantasy.

A fantasy epic based in the age of discovery around the 1500s, but where mages and magic did exist but are now extinct and have wiped out their history.
