The story really didn't have a plot. The book jumps like almost all the characters, and I got lost on who we are following. I didn't care for anyone. The other thing meanwhile I was explaining the events I noticed how generic the story was. It's the same medieval story with pretty prose. After that I just wanted to finish it. I expected more.
