This is a discussion topic for the January 2024 Book of the Month, "The Great Migration: Book One of the S'orne Saga" by Steve Ramirez


Did you feel the character development was meaningful and appropriate?

Yes. The important characters have different backgrounds and individual personalities that get fleshed out throughout the novel. That leads to different reactions to the events they have to face.

Yes, I think so. The character development in "The Great Migration" by Steve Ramirez was both meaningful and appropriate. The author appears to have used his characters effectively to reveal major background stories and deepen the narrative. For instance, through Luta, readers gain insights into the country's enemy, indicating a well-thought-out character arc. The fact that each chapter introduces a new set of characters intricately connected to the central plot suggests that the character development was carefully crafted to enhance the story's richness and complexity. This level of character development would likely be appreciated by readers who enjoy depth and evolution in characters within a novel.

I really enjoyed the character development in the book. The story introduces a diverse cast of characters with different backgrounds and locations. Each character has a distinct personality, motivation, and different relationships with others such as friendship, romance, family, rivalry, loyalty, and betrayal. This added depth and realism to the story. The different perspectives and cultural elements made me invested in the characters' fates and the evolving plot.

So far I've read, yes the character development is meaningful and appropriate. The pacing is just right, maintaining my engagement throughout the story. It's a compelling experience so far.

So far, I have liked the character development because each character is different. I like the diversity in their points of view and lifestyles.

I enjoyed the character development although changing the points of view throughout the book. I would feel drawn into one character and then it would switch to another.

I did like the character development of the book. I found all of the characters interesting and would love to know more about them. It also didn't feel like it was forced or too unrealistic. Overall, I'd say the book did a very good job.

The characters serve as conduits for the author to skillfully unveil significant background tales, thereby enriching and adding depth to the overall narrative.

Being able to create characters with authentic traits and motivations is important for a good storytelling. In 'The Great Migration', the author did an amazing job creating diversified characters and throughout the book, they act accordingly. Their individual growth contribute to the overall depth of the story. So I think the character development was appropriate.

I thoroughly enjoyed the character development EXCEPT for Prince Lamuel and his crew. I don't know what happens in the following books, but assuming his fate is as described at the end of this book, I felt they did not need to be followed as closely.

The personalities of the characters shined through. I could see how each character played relevant roles in the book's plot. Although there were many characters, They were all distinct and remarkable.

I have no reservations as regards the character development in this book. The author is an expert at character development and I give him kudos to that

I believe so. Bellona seems like the most important character, and her growth kind of stands out. Luta as well. The most distinct character development, of course, is Princess Dorinda. She went from giving Leana a hard time, to cleaning human bodies. It could have been because of the mushrooms tho.

I think every character played a different role in this plot. Through each individual, we got access to the multiple chaotic elements that composed this amazing world, which means that for such an amount of points of view, there were quite a lot of insights into the minds of these characters.
