- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5"The Dance of Time" is the sixth and final book of the Belisarius series by David Drake and Eric Flint. Overall, the story concludes the series in a somewhat interesting, though padded manner. Whereas the actual plot would probably consists of about 50% of the book, the other half consisted of side stories of various characters (and surprisingly of some new characters. i.e. Anne, the "Wife") that felt padded.The book also continues a somewhat frustrating trend of glib dialogue between characters, with scenes that border on the melodramatic. However, if you've read this far, this will not be something new.Quibbles aside, the book ends the series in a satisfactory manner, though I wish again (as with Tide of Victory) their choice in cover art was somewhat better (What the point of a blind soldier with a sword? It's not like he's Zatoichi.)
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A bittersweet ending for the Belisarius series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is a great conclusion to a great series I just wish Eric Flint would have told us what happend to all of Belisarius's faithful compainions later.
