I have officially DNFed "The Fantastically Underwhelming Epic of a Dead Wizard and an Average Bard." Too many ideas felt borrowed from other books, the characters were inconsistent, the story somehow managed to be equal parts too slow and too fast, and the humor was, well, not funny.
There were some positives. The author really knows how to write a cinematic scene. The action was pretty good. Though I am DNFing, for a self published work by a first time author, it showed promise. While I probably won't go back to this book, I will probably try this author's next attempt
