The first chapter was horrible, the second chapter was like eating stale bread, the next chapter was improving but not quite engaging. I'm now 175 pages in and I have to say, what is going on in this book? I'm speed reading just to finish it. And, the writing is ponderous, the plot character interactions are confusing, and I'm not sure I'm prepared for the rest of this book. The linguist in me does love the languages
