Certainly quite readable. It leaves me with an odd feeling. It certainly wouldn't be hard, or all that unpleasant, to read the subsequent books in the series. But, on the other hand, I wasn't really all that excited by the book. I can't help but feel that there are other books I'd rather be reading.
This is the first time in recent memory where I've read a book, actually not minded it, but not really felt any compulsion to continue reading the series (or, rather, was quite able to ignore the compulsion to continue reading the series).
Next to finish is "Gifts" by Le Guin. Then probably "Kingdom of Shadows" by Furst.
The next book on my buy list is Jim Butcher's "Storm Watch" (I figured I should find out what all this Harry Dresden fuss is about), and I've been waiting for my FLBS to get in a copy.
