Review title: Like watching paint dry
Product review: I was not terribly impressed with the first book, but when I decided to read the second book I thought perhaps it would be worth it. Boy was I wrong. It was even more dull than the first book. The characters were flat and irritating. Not only that, but a good chunk of the book was spent going over events that happened in the FIRST book, events that weren't exciting the first time we read them. When I finally reached the end of this lengthly (and pointless) flashback, I thought "Finally, now we might get some excitement." Then to my horror I realized that the next huge chunk of book was written from the point of view of a character that had up to now had been exceedingly minor and that (surprise!) I didn't care about or even like. I gave up at this point and stopped reading. The bottom line is, don't bother with this book. If I could give it zero stars, I would. The truly sad thing is, I have liked David and Leigh Eddings' books in the past. What happened guys?
