My battered old paperback of this one is 560 pages, and they're printed kind of small, and it doesn't even have page breaks between chapters. It's not going that quickly.

It's OK. It hasn't really grabbed me, so far, and it's not yet much of a page-turner, either, but I'm happy enough to read it. It's just that it seems like it might be a long time before I get to read anything else.
Do you think you are going to read the sequel, The Gripping Hand?

I am halfway through Odd Thomas, which is good, but I am looking forward to reading the second Tearling book... and I will likely be disappointed that I'm going to have to wait until at least November for the last book in the trilogy.
