I rated it 3/5 stars. This is regarded as the first in the series, but there was no introduction about who Harry was or what he looked like. We get some background sprinkled through the book later, but the beginning was abrupt. There were some plot holes/implausible events that bothered me. Of *course* Harry had to run through the crocodile's pen and the villain's end was fairly predictable once the finale's setting was revealed.
This author is very popular and the later books in the series were actually translated first, so I'm guessing they are much better. This book didn't make me feel warm and fuzzy towards Harry at all, but it just might be that I don't like characters that are addicts in general. I'm as yet unsure if I will keep reading.
