Done! this book was a slog for me - the rich world building comes at the expense of storytelling for what felt like 1/3rd of the book. Was worth it, though, excited to read the next one.

Starting to really get into this one. Stackpole has created a vast, fascinating world for me to explore, but expects me to have already explored it. The book reads like a sequel, but isn't one. Very much needs an index, glossary, etc.

That said, the bits I'm starting to pick up on are interesting, and I'm enjoying it so far.
