Its been awhile seen I posted here... So hello all!!

I read this book early last year and I was not very impressed. I dont like the characters very much so I didnt care what happened to them.

Also its hard to follow the story... The story is not very fluid IMO. Well thats just my 2 cents.

I don't like the way the story is told so it was hard for me to get into the book. I read it in french so maybe thats why I didnt liked it... http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/smile.gif (btw as you can see with my post, french is my main language, not english!!!)

The start of this book was good 'tho!

What did, or do, you think of it ?

Rocks. http://www.sffworld.com/ubb/smile.gif Haven't finished yet, but one of the best I‘ve read recently.Perhaps it's language, perhaps style.

Don't have more time now

I plan to pick it up again sometime, but the first time I started it, I decided I didn't have time to try to read a book in such an odd style. I was looking for a quick read and I don't know why, but it struck me as oddly written. I agree that it didn't read smoothly as far as I read- no fluidity. Still, sometime when I have time I'll probably attempt it again. I always hear good things about it.
