So, a couple of my friends have recommended this to me and it sounds really cool. (Plus I just noticed it has a ridiculously high average rating. Dang.) I will have to give it a shot!
Starts slow, but the first few chapters are just setup for the real story (which then also starts slow). By page 100 or so I was fully hooked, though, and it keeps getting better all the way through.
It starts a little slow and I started to read it casually.

I was kinda avoiding this book for a while. It had received an awful lot of good reviews and a lot of gush from people I like so I had a lot of expectation and my expectation had been dashed by a lot of people over time. This weekend I picked it up and after a slightly slow start I was drawn in an...
A good book but again I was left wanting more. I found the ending anticlimactic. Seems like this book peeked for me before the dragon scene and from there it was all down hill. I probably would have given this review a 5 star review if not for the dragon scene. For me, that scene took a well crafted...
