It’s a great book, although it took me some time to finish it. Some 100 pages or so in the middle weren’t as interesting as the rest of the book, and that’s where I got stuck (but I have lots of things to do at the time). Anyway, when I got back to the book, I finished it in two days, reading 250 or so pages a day. It’s super-interesting, thecharacters are fascinating as always, and… it’s a tad sad. Almost made me cry.
