Title: Overhyped and a little misogynistic
Product review: I got an email from Del Rey a little while ago absolutely slathering over this book, and so I ordered it right away. What a mistake. The book has its good points--it is written fairly well and the ends tie up. But the story is not particularly original, dispite the hype. and can even be downright boring in places. In addition, and worst, there is an undercurrent of "men are good, women are evil" that the author may not mean or mean to reveal, but it is there nonetheless.It is a bit insulting to gush as much as the publisher has over this book, comparing it to Terry Goodkind and the like. It's not exciting or original enough for all the hype. It's ok. I suggest the library or waiting for the paperback.
