amyglbarker's review against another edition
…I got about half way through before I started getting bored, but several people in my life whose opinions I respect have told me to push through so I will make an attempt to return some day!

This was more boring than a math textbook. Honestly, whoever said that this was as good as Jane Austen needs to get their eyes checked.

What an encompassing book- detailed and written in the style of texts it aims to mimic. Very engrossing, though long. Three and 1/2 stars.

I'd give this closer to 3 1/2 stars than three. But I can't give a book I came so close to giving up on as much as I did this one 4 stars. Though the writing is excellent and the world and characters brilliant, there just isn't much of a plot until the last few chapters.
I am very glad I stuck with it though. The end made the journey worth it.

I really enjoyed this book. It was well written and thought of, but it was, at times, a little slow paced. However I strongly recommend it to everyone who enjoys books about magic.
