On page 241, the dragon says, "All that self-pity was getting tiresome." I agree! With less than 80 pages left, this is a DNF. It's not enjoyable to have a whiny MC who has to be dragged into any semblance of confidence. It's constantly 3 steps forward and 2 steps back, and all other characters are underdeveloped. There's nothing that makes me want to finish this book or hope book 2 will miraculously be better.

Ugh! I'm getting frustrated with the repetitive and ridiculous hesitation, fear, and self-doubt of the main character. If things don't change soon, this is going into the DNF pile despite the good world-building and interesting plot. The MC shouldn't constantly be the weakest person or stall at every opportunity to grow. It's annoying!

Great eye catching beginning. Hopefully it will keep my attention.
