So I love Brian. I love these books.

But this guy needs to stop talking about food. So far, every 5 paragraphs is about some woodland food stuff, in - detail. I love these actors in the audio', but even they can only do so much.

I just feel like the time and words spent on describing the nuts roasted in garlic and wrapped in reeds or whatever, detracts from the characters. And I was prepared for A LOT of characters, as is normal for these books. But the food is given as much time as a character is. And it's just what they are eating that night. And I have doubts that is going to be important.

I dont feel it's contributing to a thick story. It's world building, but also too much of a specific area. It's uneven. And not what I came here for.

Still having fun, by and large. But I do need this to cool down, severely.
