My review may not be relevant to this book as I stopped reading at around page 50. And it was a laborious task just to get that far. I would compare the dialog to that of Jazz. I am not a fan of jazz, thinking that to me it sounds like a bunch of musicians simultaneously tuning their instruments and they're all off key. Same for the dialog written in this book, it seems to come from everywhere at once with no foundation as to why the events are happening, each paragraph and page seems disjointed and random. maybe, just maybe if you read the first book and this one back to back it might flow better but I choose not to reread the first one to test my theory. If there is a # 3 book in this series it will not grace my bookshelf.
