Sword & Sorcery Editorial Review

The Wall of Storms Paperback by Ken Liu has received generally positive feedback from customers who are fans of the epic fantasy genre. Critics of the book often cite issues with character development and plot flow, while others praised the strong female roles and egalitarian nature of the series. Some customers found the book formulaic and predictable, while others enjoyed the intricate details included in regional customs, food, fashion, martial strategy, and methods of worship that created a fascinating interplay of characters, gods, and populations. Despite these mixed reviews, the book has been praised for its "sprawling, sinuous" story that weaves together the great traditions of classical Chinese philosophy and culture as well as its "eloquent, imaginative" depiction of a non-Euro-centric world.
