This was only a fair book. I really tried to get into it,but there were so many large chunks of "information dump" that it made it a slog. I was an English major, and I have actually been paid as an editor in the past. Reading this book, which had a good plot, my editor kept popping up and wanting to make it better. The author did a decent job of fleshing out his characters, although certain actions were a bit improbable towards the end (for the character, not overall). Primarily, I would show more often find myself skimming the large chunks of background information. And I would find that I still enjoyed the book, even without that information. I really wish that he would use a sharp editor as I feel that would enable his books to be read by a much larger audience. show less
