I just finished reading Karen Miller's The Riven Kingdom. It was better than its predecessor Empress, but still not entirely satisfactory. It strikes me as a very overwritten book. It's a relatively thin storyline that is stretched out to 744 pages and it suffers for it. There are far too many conversations hitting the same points over and over again. This could have been a great story with better editing. I'll check out the finale Hammer of God later (And isn't that one of the coolest titles ever?). For now, I think I'll take Jacqueline Carey's Banewreaker off the to-read pile.
