This book draaaaagged. It felt like it was long just for the sake of being long. Every time I came to a significant plot point, I thought, oh, this book must be wrapping up and moving on its way, only to see that there were hours left in the audiobook. For example, when

the big bad was finally defeated, there were 5 hours left!

. The storytelling could have been a lot tighter overall. I enjoy many of the characters however.
