I have bought a whole series hardbacks a couple of months before I bought Sony Reader. Now I absolutely must like it...or else...I wasted around 65 pounds!

I cannot say it is an outstanding series but it is OK, hopefully it doesn't get worse. I would definitely give it 3/5 but I am trying to be positive and give it 3.5/5
It is so much better than most of staff I have read lately. For example: crap such as American Gods(Neil Gaiman), The Shadow of the Torturer&The Claw of the Conciliator(Gene Wolfe) or just mediocre such as Black Man/13(Richard Morgan), Anubis Gates(Tim Powers), Perdido Street Station(China Mieville) that I am quite happy to immerse myself back into epic fantasy.
