Land of Shadows

I couldn't finish. As other reviewers said, I think there is much potential here, but the author insists on telling instead of showing. I don't need to know how perfect a character is, let me learn by observing him and make my own judgements.

I have also personally grown tired of wholly good characters fulfilling prophecy by battling wholly evil characters, so it also just didn't work for me on that level.

I'm not writing off this author, but this book just wasn't for me.
