Thank goodness this is over.
I tried. I really did. I hung in there because so many have called this series a masterpiece. After finally making my way through this monster of a book, I doubt I’ll continue on. Anderson is an incredible world-builder, but all the descriptive words can’t make up for the fact that almost nothing happens in this book. At the end, I cared very little for the characters and their plights. I was able to skip whole pages without missing any important detail. I never thought I’d encounter a juxtaposition of interesting concepts and general *blandness,* but here we are.
It’s too bad. I must be missing something that many others are seeing, but I just don’t care enough to find out.

I cannot for the life of me understand why this is so popular. This is a ponderous, pretentious wandering through a setting of no color or vibrancy and with characters that are immediately forgettable. DNF at 10%.
