I'm thrilled to hear about character growth, so I'll be looking forward to that for sure.

I remember him talking about this one a couple years ago when I had him on the blog. A slow start tends to be typical for series books so I'm not sure it deters me too much. <br />I had this from NetGalley but it won't let me read it. It must have expired right about the time they finally approved me.Candacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01701325312535440179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-26294628731688240122012-11-21T14:11:57.244-07:002012-11-21T14:11:57.244-07:00I've never been a huge fan of "Epic Fanta...I've never been a huge fan of "Epic Fantasy" and that's sort of what I categorized this one as...

I think I'll wait to see what you think of the second book in this series and find out if those with the potential for growth rise to meet it before I give these books a try. I so adore characters who grow by leaps and bounds throughout a series, so I'm glad you at least see the promise of that in this first book!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-83978784761712145992012-11-21T07:29:54.890-07:002012-11-21T07:29:54.890-07:00The beginning of the book confuse me!
