This installment of the Singing Hills Cycle left me wanting more. We got such elaborate tales in the first two, with the “current events” taking a background role, that I wasn't expecting it to be completely reversed in Into the Riverlands. Of course, you understand why in the end, but part of what I love about this series, the art of storytelling, was largely missing. I'm hoping to get that back in book 4.
