Knowing absolutely nothing about monks or monasteries, I have already picked up quite a bit about their way of life.
Decent character development - I already really like Jack, and I think I will only grow to like him more as the story moves forward.
Relatively fast paced and surprisingly easy to follow.
Although I must say there is an awful lot of talk about food/eating and feeling hungry/being hungry.
