I bought the first one on a whim after thuming through it in a bookstore. A week later I bought the second... as I didn't have money for the third I went back and read both again...all in about 2 weeks. I finally gave in and bought the third on saturday night, and was horribly dissapointed that it was done by monday morning and I had to go to work on about an hour sleep. I think I like that the heros are not really heros. There is a lot about redemption, and the small reasons we make choices, its all in the details. I love the detail in the wrighting, and the blur between right and wrong. On the other hand my partner read half of the first chapter of Damphir and refused to go any farther because the main charactor wasn't nice. oh well.
