J. V. Jones: opinions?

First, who has heard of/read this author?
(I have! I have!)

What are your impressions?

[kind of spoilers]
The ending to Master and Fool is within spitting distance of a *deus ex thaumoturgica *. Of course, after reading the last word of A Cavern Of Black Ice, I’m going to re-read the Book of Words again.

General impressions: Epic fantasy, character driven. But the descriptions… you can break fevers by reading ACOBI.
