The Vagrant by Peter Newman

3.0

DNF 80% through.

I am not going to claim to be a literary genius ( like 90% of you think you are ) or use an extensive list of vocabulary words that might add to my merit ( like 90% of you do ). I'll just tell ya how it went for me.

I started out loving the descriptive imagery and pace of the novel. Beautiful worlds described in beautiful words - but that only lasts so long. After the first couple chapters, I realized the main character didn't speak and almost had zero personality, like the worst date ever.

I didn't get attached to any characters except for a goat, which was the most interesting character ( not a joke ) therefore it was hard to press on and on of an unclear plot and page after page of a setting we've all seen in video game cut-scenes.

Might be for you, wasn't for me though I enjoyed creating imagery in my mind; just couldn't do it for 500 pages.
