Finished The Goblin Emperor, which is a very good book and great read, though it does feature one little peeve: why wait until the end of the book to give a pronunciation and naming-conventions guide? I mean, it's too late by then, the reader has already puzzled half of it out or just plain given up on trying. I suppose it might be helpful on the second go-round, if one were planning to do that any time soon, but for me-- there are too many books waiting to be read...
At any rate, it was a good book and will go on the favorites list.
