After reading trollen rose by PMF Jhonson, I found it to be interesting, although it had a few flaws.
First, the positive: The main protagonist is neither superhuman nor weakling. He seems to have talents and flaws like everyone else, and is a compulsive thief.
Ungor, who is somehow framed as a villlain, seems to be more likable than not.
Other characters who are meant to be detested are detested thoroughly, and those liked are honorable and interesting.
I truly appreciate the extra effort in creating lore and backstory, as well as adding a quote at the start of each chapter, although many were hit and miss.
Things that detracted from the general fun of the whole thing were how self Pitying Rev is as a main character, the romantic aspects, as well as the humor. Often as a reader I felt left out of the loop when it came to those things. Strangely enough, other aspects of interaction could well have been my favorite part, which seems inconsistant.
All in all, I liked the book, and am glad I read it.
