The Cold Commands by Richard K. Morgan

3.0

Eurgh, second book problems.

This book does eventually get good, so if you're struggling along with it as I was for many months, yes, it will be worth it in the end.

But, jesus fucking christ save me from second book, wheel spinning, setting up, not getting the bloody point problems.

Also, I really don't understand the mythology. I'm not sure if that's my fault and I just need a re-read, or if it's Morgan's fault and it's just not explained clearly, but I really don't understand what's going on with the magic system.
