Well, I didn't actually finish this, but I must have gone through a couple of novels' worth before abandoning it.
Ok, this is the deal. It's not a novel, it's somewhere between a tale (only one character is followed, no sub-plot, single timeline) and an account (I kid you not: there is not one single metaphor or simile in the whole thing). That's why no publisher will touch it despite it being worshiped by the multitudes here on goodreads. It's just not all there.
He's great - GREAT - at what he does: endless super-fight scenes, dawdling interludes, moving characters (in the same room, only, as the main character) around, but as an author he hasn't drunk of the cup.
I recommend checking it out . . . you'll give up soon enough.
