Hated it. Reading this book was like drinking castor oil - you know it will be good for you ( or so everyone says), but you still hate doing it. The two best words to describe this epic are BRUTAL and DEPRESSING. I would equate this book to Braveheart - the good guys die, & who wants to live in the world that is coming? not me. Thank goodness there are other good books out there to help me get over the horrible feeling I had when I finally finished this book.
