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.

Incredibly fun, it doesn’t end. It’s sad. He’s seven, he’s 25, he almost dies like four times, he dies once. THERE ARE SPIDERS THE SIZE OF DOGS. THEY SWORDFIGHT SHARKS. AND WIN
