I have ordered Name of the Wind from my library so we’ll see how I get on with it.

Satima – fascinating, isn’t it, how differently people can view the same thing. We both loved the Joe Abercrombie book and yet we differ on this one.

I didn’t care for Name of the Wind and I found myself skipping great chunks of it. It might’ve been just the space I was in at the time, but I don’t think so. It just wasn’t my kind of book.

I guess that means I’ll have to read Book 1 again before I can read Book 2. It;s not all bad!!!
