zerto's review against another edition

It was a bit too violent and vulgar for me. The flashback chapters were annoying and confusing. I don’t mind morally gray characters, but I couldn’t sympathize with any of the characters.

Clever, detailed, and entertaining but more violent, high fantasy and male than what I was in the mood for.
