Nice review, Selvarin! I finally got the book myself and am only about 60% through reading it, but so far I agree with you wholeheartedly.

Really? Well, I'll be. Still, it shouldn't surprise me either way; Patrick Younts has long since proven both that he does his research and that he's got an excellent imagination.
