Well, I have checked the plot summary before I gave up, just to look if I am giving up something too early. Totally predictable cliche story. Not much action either - but lack of action is not a problem if the characters or the world are interesting. There is nothing unique about either in this book.
I like authors who can get my attention right away. It is very rare that a book starts out dull but later becomes good.
But of course tastes are different.
