up. I couldn't keep track of anything and it kind of bored me. I stuck to it and it turned out to be one of the most entertaining listens I've had. Book 2 was a lot easier at the start because of familiarity with characters.

I'd stop reading and wait to see if he ever finishes the 3rd book.

I'm about 15% done and I have no idea. Somewhat interesting, just really slow

I enjoyed it, but I did audible so it went much faster. Sequel was better.

I agree it starts kinda slow. It definitely picks up by the time he's at the

I agree with this. Super slow start, but some very important things happen.

I listened to it on audible. It was a little slow paced at first but ended up being excellent

Audiobook is better than the book. The reader is excellent

Ok, so that’s what I was going for. I think I’ll stick it out

Great book with a better sequel. Can’t wait for book 3 but I fear the author is
