The writing, stylistically, is quite good. Beautiful descriptions and settings but the pace....my gawd. I was halfway through the book and nothing. Had. Happened. I found myself skimming along to get to some action. Started good and ended up falling flat. By the time the (moderate) twists were dumped in at the end, I could not have cared less.
