Title: In What Alternate Reality is This a Good Book???
Product review: I have never written a negative book review. I love reading, read a book a week and can safely say I have never read something so pretentious. I couldn't make it past 40 pages (made me break my 'give a book 50 pages' rule). Imagine a stuffy old college English professor, someone who loves nothing more than the sound of his own voice, then imagine said professor writing an epic Fantasy and that is what you have here. The narration reads like bad stage directions to the reader. Seriously, how in god's name did the editor sign off on this narrative voice??? "Hey, I have an idea, write in a narrative style that is as slow and dry as possible with plenty of invisible wall references to the story, our story so far, the reader, readers of the story, etc. etc."I literally threw this book across the room. To call this an awful book is disrespectful to all the awful books out there.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
