More Linkage For Your Enjoyment

Inspired by the last link post, here's another interesting review of A Conspiracy of Kings, http://heidenkind.blogspot.com/2010/04/conspiracy-of-kings-by-megan-whalen.html, in which Eugenides takes over the world and the fourth book is apparently a giant cliffhanger. I totally missed the cliff during my reading, though. I mean, it felt like an in-between book, but I didn't feel dissatisfied with the ending, unlike the reviewer. While I agreed with the discussion of Sophos's character change, I was a bit confused by that part. What do you guys think, is ACoK incomplete?

(And is Gen taking over the world? *dun dun DUNNN*)

As to shy Sophos whipping it out, hasn't she heard the warning, "Watch out for the quiet ones"?

Perhaps Gen IS taking over the world. He's got his preferred leaders all set up in Eddis, Attolia, and Sounis... maybe Emperor of the Medes is part of Costis' new job description? =P
