4.25

It's incredible that this is an indie without all the resources that a big name publisher brings. In the total universe of books, this is probably a 5, but I can't help but compare it to other books I've rated 5 and in that respect I'm conflicted, because it's just not there for me. I know Mark Lawrence,  doesn't think I should be doing that (not quite what he said, I'm extrapolating), but it's hard not to. I have to go with what I think, which is probably 4.25-4.5 due to a few minor things.
