Helpful Score: 4
I've read all of the books in this series. While the early books, such as this one, showed great promise for a good read by the third or fourth book I was getting darned tired of self-doubts and self-recriminations of the main character. Combined with the religious aspects of the series this turned a promising character and interesting saga into a chore to finish. While some might enjoy this type of story, I've found that for myself it simply isn't my cup of tea.
