I was, again, disappointed by this book. Not because it had a lot a lot of hype around it, but because a few of my close friends gave it very strong reviews and it didn't live up to my expectations as a fantastic fantasy book. It was alright, but I expected more.
It started really really strongly. It has a really good foundation. But after you get halfway through it slows down and you hear the same story over and over again for the next couple hundred pages. I have high hopes for the next book in the series though. I'm sure it's filled with all the high action adventure that the first book promised and didn't deliver.
That being said, I do like the main character. He's a little annoying when he's younger but as a whole, he's a pretty awesome guy. I'm looking forward to reading more about him.
I give this book 7 scales out of 10. It was good, but not great. Stay tuned for more on the series and whether it's worth getting into.
