Mercury

Still as compulsively readable as ever - though it is starting to get very difficult keeping track of three different versions each of Martin and Jacob as well as two versions of Charles.

The real problem though with this book, and something that I would have liked to been aware of (say, Goodreads actually listing page count) is this book is only 108 pages long - about 20 of that not even story. Before I started it, I thought this book was going to be the 300-ish pages of the rest of the series.

I feel a little taken advantage of, for forking over $4 for what amounts to a novella and have actually not started series that have this sort of pay/page that this book did. That being said, I do enjoy the series, this book is likely necessary for understanding the fifth and final book and I don't really regret buying it.

(At least the story that was there was enjoyable.)
