Though I believe Hugo spins a great yarn and creates great characters, he can sometimes be darned boring. Even the best characters don't require more than say 20-30 pages to explain. This section had 200 pages in it, 150 of which explained characters. It wasn't until the last 50 pages did something actually start to happen. Needless to say, these pages read very quickly in comparison.
I will now put this aside again for awhile and move on to something else.
And that is the last book in Vicki Pettersson's Zodiac series, The Neon Graveyard. I am only 4 pages in, but, as always, she has me intrigued.
