And for an "adult fantasy" it just doesn't seem to be intelligent enough. Loose plot ends are thrown out now and again without being picked up which made me think the author forgot about them. Along with this I must say the plot is not intriguing enough and it seems like the novel is missing some editing. I want to read something that inspires me, but reading about Quentin's self-pity and his poor view on life and people in general is just depressing. But I never identified with Quentin, and I lost my interest in him throughout the book. In doing so the character is probably supposed to be easier to identify with. I get that Grossman is trying to create a three-dimensional protagonist with weaknesses and problems.
