I couldnt get over the fact that it was a fantasy series set in the wild west?!? What the heck is that about? I suppose if i'd been a fan of westerns and fantasy books then maybe...
That's the appealing thing for me... I'm so tired of High Fantasy right now. Don't know if I can go back to that crap for a WHILE.


and I kind of agree on the action scenes, even already. The scene with all the people of Tull early on was awesome, and the details were really well written, but it did kind of fly by. I too like longer action scenes. (btw, all I could think of was Resident Evil 4... I wonder if they got some inspiration from this book?)

Still an awesome book so far though. Really growing to like it.
