tani's review against another edition
2.0
I thought this started out OK. It felt a bit old school, and I was in the mood for that, so I ignored the things that bothered me, like the excessively patriarchal bullshit and the way it buries its gay character/villain very early on. I thought it had a bit of an interesting take on things, and that it might be at least mildly enjoyable. However, as the book goes on, it gets more and more repetitive and boring. There battles, but they're not exciting. There are plot developments, but they're scattered and well-seasoned by monotony. At the end of the day, very little actual progress is made in the story, and it's exhausted my last bit of give-a-damn. Definitely not continuing with this series.

A well-written story with two likable main characters, for two very different reasons.

This is quickly being added to my DNF pile. I can not get over the child like writing skills of the author. Seriously, my 8th grader can write better then this. It's so shallow and lacks any real luster. There is no feeling no emotions it's all flat and boring. I want all the characters to die becuse I DONT CARE.
Now on to something better. Like maybe Green Eggs And Ham for it is a step up in writing then this book.

Having the narrative shift back and forth between the two assumed protagonists kept this from gathering any momentum for me. I would have greatly preferred just sticking to Grus for the duration, but no dice.
