After reading the original trilogy I was burnt out on the repetitive nature of the plot line in this book. There are too many characters with their Roman-Latin confusing names. I had the same problem with the original trilogy, but the plot was new and more refreshing making it easier to finish. After a while the gore just gets to be mind numbing. I made it through, but it took a lot longer to finish, and I kept thinking I wanted to move on to something different. I don't plan on finishing the other books in this series; it would be too much of a slog.
