A lot of people seem to dislike this book not realizing that this book is like a season 2 chapter 1 book. It’s a new beginning, so the protagonist had to struggle to get back what he had and I am not happy about the quest giver skill being lost. He earned that fair and square, I hope they come up with something close to give him to make up for it. Other than that, this book was well written and was even more enjoyable than the last book. I think the timing was rushed a bit, more details on some of the sub plots would have helped. We will see about the next book, I am waiting impatiently for.
