Status Updates From One for the Rock (Sebastian...

The writing got a little better but I still setting this book aside. I don't want to spend any more time with Sebastian Synard. The man presses too many of my buttons. That probably means he's well-written. It definitely means I'm ditching the book.

I'm two chapters in. This isn't working for me yet. The story is told from Sebastian's point of view. His internal monologue delivered in a brusque staccato that I find annoying, mostly because it's so disjointed. It doesn't help that I find Sebastian hard to like. He comes across as smug and complacent.
Still, he's just found the dead body. Maybe things will pick up as the investigation gets underway.
