Too bad, because the characters and the world was really interesting.

Glad to see I'm not the only one. Found a few online reviews that praise the series and touts it as "breathing new life into the fantasy genre". The whole premise of the story is interesting and something different, but I wouldn't go so far with praise.
Another reader summed it up pretty nicely:

...but as the series went on, I found myself having to forcibly pick up the book and read it, all the while fighting the instinct to put it down.
