It is never a good sign when your thoughts on ending a book are "Hallelujah, I'm finished."

Kearns is just as insufferable as Warthrop. Yay...

The Anthropophagi are very inefficient eaters.

So the doctor has some decency. Good to know.

Does it ever pick up?

I sort of want to throttle Warthrop every time he says "Snap to, William Henry!" - and he says it a lot.
At times Warthrop's characterization reminds me of Holmes, with his mania while on a case, and depression when not, his egotism and whatnot. But he has none of Holmes' charm.
Anyway, I'm not very far into it, yet, but it's not exactly gripping thus far.
