This was pretty slow for me. I started and stopped it about three times, I think? I finally plowed through the latter 80% all at once, but there were still some points I kind of checked out at. It was interesting enough, I guess, but I'm not blown away by either the characters or the setting so far and I'm not really sure why there are two more books or what they would be about because that seemed to be a pretty well wrapped up story.

I'm trying to not disparage this story, but so far it's just a kind of meh for me.
