The beginning dragged a little, but when events finally started happening, it picked up. I didn't find the main character especially likeable, which hurt my opinion of the story some. It had that feeling you find in some books of reading like a movie script, like the author already had a movie in mind while writing the book, which tends to lead to a lot of dumbing down of internal narratives in favor of action that would be visual, which I found to be a shame.
