Finished Witch World and Web of the Witch World

Finished Andre Norton's Witch World (actually re-read this book) on December 8th and Web of the Witch World on December 13th.

Witch World was a stronger book than I recalled.  It's interesting, however, how writing styles have changed since the 60s.  These books are much more compact, much more description oriented rather than dialogue oriented, and character development is minimal.  Moving through the plot quickly, keeping the action moving, and more episodic storytelling seems to be king in these books.  I had to catch myself skipping over a descriptive sentence and completely missing a key point.

I also wonder if the first book was originally serialized since there were very distinct mini-stories for each section.
