I'm mostly a sci-fi reader, preferring happy feelgood stories, and competency porn, but reading a lot of different stuff makes me happy :)

Another great one

This one was so much fun, it really brought the series forward, introduced some new characters, and had a very nice story arc to it, I had so much fun reading it, and the last half was almost impossible to put down for me. Very much enjoyed this one.

I *Really* liked this one

I did enjoy this book, and the ending is really good, it just was so much setup for things that will happen later from what I can gather, something that ends up in a book that felt very broken up and like it was setting up a lot of stuff that won't be answered in a long time still.

Enjoyable, but feels more like half of a book than a standalone

I did enjoy this one, but it feels a bit spread out and not as focused and good as most other books in the series, some of the stories were more enjoyable than others, so it was a bit much of speeding through the less enjoyable ones to get to the good bit, after the half way point that started to get better though, and it wasn't really an issue anymore.
