3.0

Much better than expected. The ending was intense to the last few pages.
I am not sure what to think about the ending though...

A good quick read, fairly interesting. Nice twists and great fight descriptions / attention to detail. Very well paced, not overly drawn out action and neatly organized lulls. Funny without trying too hard. And cooool characters, never thought I'd root for a dude with a Chain.

This book was recommended to me and simply put, it's not my type of book. I love the plot (hence the 2 stars). But the writing style made it difficult for me to get into and I often fell asleep while reading. It's very D&D-esque, which is fine, but the writing style... It's overly descriptive in a stiff kind of way. The structure and flow seem blocky and abrupt. Feelings and thoughts are stated superficially rather than written with powerful emotion that evoke response from the reader. At least that's how I felt. I know a lot of people enjoyed this book and that's great, I really love that. I wish I was able to, as well, but unfortunately I did not. I will say that the plot is great, there are good cliffhangers, and the ending was... pleasant. :)
