Title: Poor
Product review: After receiving a few recommendations to read this book and the rest of the series, I picked up a copy. I could not read past the first chapter. The writing style, which I think was meant to help the reader relate to the protagonist, grated on my nerves. The overuse of slang did not help either. I found very little to like about the main character within the first chapter and, as the book is written in the first person, an engaging protagonist is required.There are many better fantasy choices. Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, the Riftwar Saga, the Discworld Series, Good Omens, and if you like the premise of someone being pulled out of the real world to a fantasy world try and find "A Two-Edged Sword" by Thomas K. Martin and the two books that follow it, "A Matter of Honor" and "A Call to Arms".
