While there were many things I enjoyed about this book, I think the thing I felt most was frustrated.  There was so much that felt like willful ignorance because things were explained well enough that I as the reader picked up on the meaning but that Fitz as the character did not and perhaps could not because they way they tried to explain things to him was not in one he could easily grasp and understand.
