Reading it now, it reads almost like an adaptation of a Japanese Fantasy RPG where the minute you see a map, you know the characters will have to go to every named point on it, and once they have, the series is over. It's pleasantly written, and the writing style moves pretty briskly. Fun fantasy fluff that goes on a bit too long. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/332346?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
