The Walls of Air
The Walls of Air | Barbara Hambly
3 posts | 5 read | 1 to read
California natives Gil and Rudy must use their newfound magical powers to defend their adopted homeland when the powers of the Dark rise up—again Once upon a time, Gil and Rudy lived simple lives. Until they met Ingold, she was an ordinary PhD candidate and he was a drifter, whiling away his life riding motorcycles under the California sun. But wizards have a way of complicating things. Ingold brought them across the Void, where an evil known as the Dark threatened to devour civilization whole. Civilization’s hopes rested on an infant prince, and to protect him Gil and Rudy had to draw on newfound powers—she as a warrior, and he as a wizard. With Ingold’s help they escaped the Dark, and led a hardy band of survivors to a far-away keep, where humanity could be safe for a time. But now that time is past, and there is nowhere to hide from the Dark. This ebook features an illustrated biography of Barbara Hambly, including rare photos and never-before-seen documents from the author’s personal collection.

After a day of trying to settle in with THE WALLS OF AIR, I‘ve accepted that I can‘t just sit and read it because I don‘t really want to. It‘s not a bad book, by any means, but it doesn‘t call to me right now.

So I‘m gonna drift away from it. Maybe I‘ll try the series again in a few years.

I always seem to have the same problem with Barbara Hambly‘s books: they practically read themselves once I pick them up, but I can‘t seem to actually, like, PICK THEM UP. I‘m gonna make a real effort to prioritize THE WALLS OF AIR today so I can see if there‘s any hope for us or I‘d do better to read something else.

I started THE WALLS OF AIR while I ate too many dumplings. The first book, THE TIME OF THE DARK, grabbed me quick but kinda lost me by the end, so I‘m hoping this one goes a bit better.
