I have been hearing about this book for a while now, but was pretty reluctant to read it when it was in hardcover, but now that its in paperback....

The book was pretty good, but not great. It was interesting, but slow moving at first. I didn't really get into it until about half way through and that's a long time with a 850 page book. In the end, I thought it was an interesting book but not necessarily worth the 2 months it took me to read it. I think I was expecting a book with more depth and this was a bit more trivial than I was expecting.
