You can also discuss along online here in this topic. Let us know if you like the book, didn't like it, or any other thoughts you have about the book.

I think it's no surprise that I loved this book. It's practically a nerdgasm. I recognize that it follows a pretty common sci-fi/fantasy formula with the quest and the cast. However, I found it charming that the narrator actually points that out, and the cast of characters were all generally really fun. Great book.

I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it since you demanded that we read it. ;)

I'm about 50 pages in and really enjoying it so far.

Finished a few days ago and loved it. Good choice!

I've just started "The Tower" section. So I should be finished by Sunday.

I can tell you, I would rather be reading the rest of the book now instead of working. ;)

I'm totally loving this-so fun!
