Thank you! I did not care for this book at all, and felt like I was committing some sort of hate crime for doing so. I'm glad to hear a second that this book was not very good.

Oh no. I'm pagan myself and was very dissatisfied with it.

Is this the self-published edition? I know the first book got re-released a few years after the series took off. I have to assume the re-release was a little tidier.

He found representation with the second book, and... they get better. Um, never GREAT, but better.
