Pretty much sucked in right from the get go. Even between the action there’s lots to be grabbing for: How the characters interact with each other, how they ended up in Slough, and where all of this intrigue is leading. Not gonna lie I thought River was a 50 year old man the way he was written, but I love his interactions with Sid so far. Lady Di and Lamb are my other two favorite characters. Can’t wait to finish

The book is starting to pick up pace. The attack of the Trollocs was really good, I liked how mysterious they seemed. Rand and Moiraine are the only characters I have any real attachment to so far. I will continue to read, but I’m not convinced I’ll finish this book on this read.

The beginning was a bit of a slog, but now that we’ve gotten some exposition the story seems a touch more interesting. Not sold so far, none of the characters have grabbed me yet.
