Admittedly, I'm not a huge sci-fi/fantasy fan. Friends recommended this to me ages ago and I made several attempts over ten years to read it but never got past the first chapter. Once I finally muscled my way through the first third of the book though, it finally hooked me. Then approaching the end I thought there was no way all the loose ends could possibly get wrapped up in the number of pages remaining. And they weren't. I didn't realize this was the first in a series. OF TWELVE. If it took me ten years to read the first one, I have no hope of getting through the rest. ]]>
