Nolyn returns us to the world of Riyria, which for many of us longtime readers is like putting on a nice old sweatshirt that is comforting. It is several hundred years after the events of the previous released series, but features some of the same characters who have lived on, and/or references them quite often. Without the time or energy to write a huge lengthy review, I will say that I enjoyed returning to this world, but that Nolyn left a bit to be filled in, and felt a bit watered-down in some areas. It had engaging characters, but just lacked some "oomph" I was looking for, and some of the fullness of story from the previous series. I am still extremely eager to get my hands on the next novel in the series, and will assuredly still back the upcoming kickstarter.

I don't want to sound as though I did not enjoy Nolyn, as I very much did - it just didn't blow me away as some of the previous novels have.
