The book kept my interest, but it seemed like it was the longest book ever written. Wait - it WAS pretty darned long, at ~850 pages. The various strings of the story got tied up pretty quickly in about a 15-page clump way at the end of the book; the actual ending (the last two pages or so) was not as satisfying as I could have hoped.

I guess that after giving this book so many hours of my life, I was hoping for something a bit more meaty at the end.
