I am sorry to say that I only read this book because it was made a show on Starz. Sometimes books made to tv shows turns out well and sometimes its not. The show has two more episodes but I love the book. I should not have waited. I inhaled this book in 4 days. I am a huge fan of Mythology, The amount of lore in this book, and how it's handled is fantastic.The way the story is narrated in particular, makes the reader feel as if events are being guided by some higher power like fate, though it's obviously the author, and this lends itself greatly to the classical fantasy feel of the book.
