DESCRIPTION:
"An absolutely magical read!" according to Susan M. I do not even know where to start with this review. There is just so much happening in The Fall that my mind is spinning. The use of allegory really made an impression on me. Think of the title as you read, so many different ‘Falls’ entwined within this story. The writing is magical, as usual. The world building and character development are absolutely spellbinding. If you have not read the first two books in this series, The Marann and Daughters of Suralia, I would highly recommend it. The author won a Prism award for the first book which was so well deserved. Let me discuss the title within . "Added to my Re-Reading List" according to Amazon Customer. I read the first book in the series and loved the relationships described as well as the overall story. The Fall is the third book in the series and focuses on a minor character introduced in the second book, The Daughters if Suralia. I enjoyed the story and the struggles the lead female experiences and her ability to overcome loss time and again.I was drawn into the story and details of the social structure described in all three books while this book delves in more deeply into the political sphere. This provides an interesting backdrop to the other story lines within the book. The reader feels the frust. Slow in the middle but satisfying overall I received this book from the author and did not know at the time it was the third book in the series (I thought it was the second).

I wish the rating system allowed 3.5 stars, because there really is a lot to like about this book, and I will be checking out the series. Meierz' worldbuilding is very good when it comes to the Tolari world and its customs. I especially like the ruler's bond with the land and the reciprocal bond between th
But in the midst of ancient, bitter rivalries, a serious injury erases Laura's time in Parania--and, perhaps, loses her the love of her Paran, who yearns for the woman she once was. Award-winning science fiction romance author Christie Meierz presents the newest of her bestselling Tales of Tolari Space.Laura Howard, Earth Fleet widow and exile from human space, found more than safety on Tolar: she captured the love of a Tolari ruler and became a powerful Tolari empath. Armed only with the memories of her youth, and empathically bonded to a man she can no longer understand, she struggles to recover and find her place, and herself, before a hidden enemy forces the Paran to do what he had always considered unthinkable: risk his life, and with it Laura's, to fight for the leadership of the ruling caste.The Fall is the story of a world re-opened to the stars after millennia of isolation, and the hazards and opportunities that abound when one's feelings are known to everyone around you.
