This book has a lot of promise and maybe if I'd read it instead of listening to it, or listened to it during a different time, it would've delivered for me. Instead, I didn't find myself that interested in the characters, and the audiobook skipped around a bit so I felt perpetually lost or disoriented. Again, I probably shouldn't punish the book for the technology hiccups, but I suspect if I'd found the book more compelling, I would've started over on a new device. Instead I found myself eager to finish it so I could be done. From a genre standpoint, it kind of reminded me of Dr. Strange and Mr. Norrell.
