I was several chapters in and had very little idea what was being layed out, to the point that I lost interest. Few books do that to me. His over-worked prose-ish vocabulary and phrasing didn't help. I guess I need my literary entertainment to hit me a little more directly. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/966132?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
