Title: Too many characters, not enough characterization
Review: There are more than 75 -- count 'em, 75 -- characters with speaking parts in this book. The author spends most of his time moving them from place to place. And the characters are hard to tell apart because they're all made of oak or maybe hard maple. Some of the action is okay, but that can't make up for the wooden people.
