Really was a 2 most of the way through but the ending picked up and it was just enough to get a 3 star. Maybe if I picked this up when I was younger and have not read a lot of fantasy series before it, I would have liked it more. I also listen to the audiobook so maybe that had a little to do with it.

Michael Kramer who does the narration, I like everything else he has done and read. With this book I do not know if it is him or the writing or both. Just about everyone in the series so far are the most whinny and annoying people I have found in a book. Over the top whinny and annoying. To the point I almost stopped many times. The bigger story is good and I keep hoping they characters will grow out of it. The main group of younger characters act like 10 year old spoiled brats that are over reacting. The writer seems to think the way they react is normal.

I am going to try and couple more to see if the writer can grow and work out how the act.
