I loved the first book of the Crown of Stars series
I read several volumes of that series but stopped when the guy who had the power over the dogs had too many bad things happen to him for my taste.
I loved the theory of the division of government and religion by gender, though.
Anyone hear reading the Wheel of Time series? I used to be getting it from the library, but I don't remember where I stopped (and synopses don't help).
Is it done? What happened?
Oh, absolutely not. Too many words. Too much braid-pulling and genders not able to have actual conversations with the other.
That is to say, I know people who were enjoying it back in the day, not shamefully hooked like myself. I just couldn't recommend it in good conscience.

I tried to get into it a couple of times, but I seem to have lost my taste for fantasies that require cheat sheets to keep track of things.
It seemed to be one of those works that needed details to understand while you're in the trenches reading, but any given book could be summed up in a few sentences, and the series to date in fewer.
Umm, I think it's still on-going. I can't say when I gave up on it but there are something like 11 books in the series so far.
There is one that either just came out or is goingto be comming out ...But I've lost track. I only read the first one.
I read The Sharing Knife, and I was very disappointed. It seemed like something any number of fantasy writers could have written.
