Wow. I just started reading the first book, and man...the plot is the only thing holding me to it, and that barely. I don't give a damn about a single character I've read about-they're all two dimensional, and some of them barely that!

That's why I returned it to Borders, Rakeesh. I actually bought it on discount and returned it for full price... and it still wasn't worth it. [Evil]

Man, I'm really considering returning the damn thing. I've never actually done that before.

Yeah, I was glad I borrowed and even so I had to force myself to finish it. Now my friend expects me to read the next one in the series...700 pages. Great.
