Title: still plodding through it all...
Review: Admittedly I have not read the entire book, but it is probably one of the more difficult books I have read in a while. I do not like books that come with their own dictionary of terms, people, places and events. If I read a book, I want to become absorbed in its words and imagery to fully enjoy the story, I do not want to have to flip to the back every other page to learn a new vocabulary word that is part of the fictional culture I'm reading about. I have read some wonderful books that did not require the reader to learn a new culture or language, the authors were able to create an intriguing fantasy world with the language they have at hand.
Is the review positive or negative?
