Review of 'Throne of the Crescent Moon' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

This has to be one of the most disappointing books I’ve read since Name of the Wind. I have been wanting to read it for years but what a letdown. The setting and characters were initially very interesting and I enjoyed the whole ‘Islamic fantasy story’ aspect but the author was just not up to the task I think. The other reviews seem to have nailed it so I’m not going to repeat but I’m just left with the feeling this could have been extraordinary in the hands of a competent author
