Fire Logic

DNF - PG 27

Why?

I have tried no less than three times to get involved in this book and I just can't. It's loaded at the front with all sorts of world building and absolutely no characters that I can say ‘I might like them.' The characters I did meet have nothing personality wise to make them stand out - they have no charm, no quirks, nothing to bring them to life. The final straw though was the fact that fifteen years pass at the start of chapter three. (Between the end of chapter two and the start of chapter three, I think, specifically.) Perhaps I was wanting too much because I was really excited for this book, but the characters/writing style just distance me so much from the story being told that I've got no interest in continuing.
