To begin with, I'm not a native english speaker. This book was excellent to test my level at english and learn some new words while having fun reading an interesting story. Although not perfect, it is a good book and I would recommend reading it, even though is a short version of the real book, to every non native speaker.
I'm certain that the complete book is much better than this version, covering much of the flaws on this short version. Those flaws are mainly character development (due to the size of the book, there isn't enough space to develop everyone, specially the support characters) and "content density" (amout of words to describe and narrate each event).
It's a solid 3,75 stars. I wouldn't recommend to native speakers that could read the normal version, but for those who wanna test or get better at english, 100% worth it.
