Regret.

Would have maybe been 4 stars like some of the others, but I'm getting overly tired of all the sentences that start like this:

That's...actually not a bad idea.
I...never thought of that.
You're...not wrong.

I'm sure I have quirks of my own that I don't notice and others do, but I'm not a published author. I am amazed that no beta reader or editor or someone hasn't mentioned how often this author uses this particular structure. Or maybe they have, and he still can't help himself. I am not one of those people that hates “nonstandard” writing, so ellipsis away for all I care. BUT! Stop doing it in exactly the same way, roughly 100 times per novel!!

Pretty much a continuation of the first in the series and Andrew does not disappoint. If anything this one is faster and more video gamish than the first. We meet more swords and more monsters and some sub plots get added. Seems like in for the full ride. Bring it on!
