2.5 rounded up to 3 because of my interest in other charactersI don't know why this story didn't grab me like the first one, but I read it over 3 days because I never really got into it. Or, perhaps more accurately, I'd get into it for a few scenes, then not be into it again for a while.But I found myself really interested in several of the secondary characters and hope they'll get their own stories. Troy, Vance, Nevin, in particular, though Renart also.
