And I've abandoned it. Too many impossible/implausible events, and I'm not interested in the characters. When I do a Sudoku on the train in preference to reading, the book has to be abandoned!

So instead I read A Girl Corrupted by the Internet is the Summoned Hero?! by Eliezer Yudkowsky. This is the author of the wonderful Harry Potter and the Methods of Rationality. And this is fun rational examination of a standard fantasy trope.
