Each chapter follows different characters and tales in the saga that happens, showing the different viewpoints and rounding off the tale. It didn't immediately draw me in, but I found myself swept up into the action as I got further in. Although parts can be quite gruesome, this was a really entertaining read and extremely likable and definitely gives advice and wisdom that can be practiced anywhere in business and life. 3.5 stars.
