Review title: Like me, this book did not age well
Product review: I just finished Child of Fortune and I was glad to be done with it. I found the The language obtuse and awkward and the characters unlikable. I'm not afraid of words or a meandering plot; they can be fun, c.f. China Mieville or Ian M Banks.Here we end up with a protagonist who starts out as a spoiled "child of Fortune" manages to make very little progress over very many pages.
