    <body><![CDATA[So far, I find the chapters of this book a little too short.  It is also difficult if you had not finished book two recently, it relies heavily on your knowledge of those previous books.  The short chapters do make for good quick reading when you are tired, as you can finish a chapter in less than 1...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/72168165">more...</a>]]></body>
