Title: Could've been better if you take out 200-300 pages
Review: It took me a very long time to read this book. I would've stopped reading it a while ago, but I wanted to see what all the hype was. Is it this chapter? No. Maybe it will be in the next one. Nope. The last 1/8 of the book held some dramatic tension I guess, but when Strange and Norrell meet again, they become friends. No magic fight. No human fight. No argument. 750 pages of building of the differences in views and opinions of these two magicians and at the end when you think there will be some kind of resolution to all of the long, long, long build up there is nothing. I felt drained after finishing this book, wishing I had never started it. So if you're looking for a very heavy paperweight, this book is for you.
