Started this a couple of days ago during breaks, I'm about 1/3 of the way through and enjoying it. DG's influence shows in the style: cinematic, large cast, changing POVs. It's interesting and well enough written. The multiple character threads and histories are just starting to show glimpses of coming together, which I enjoy. My only real complaint so far is that the naming for characters doesn't seem very culturally cohesive. Fell Aron Lee, Bartellus, Shuskara, Emly, Indaro. They're all from the same place, but the names sound globally diverse. For me it always helps when, especially in an age before mass communication, nomenclature is a little more generic and cohesive. But that's one small complaint and doesn't detract from the story particularly (except I keep remembering it as Fell Iron Lee, which makes me think of Bruce Lee).
