Meeh, it's a good story but it falls flat in the fact in that the author figures you've read the earlier books in that world. So a lot of items/events are spoken of but never actually explained. Didn't really feel like a story but more like "here's part 1 with a cliffhanger". The only thing I've read from this author is Southern Fried Dragon.

Excellent quality, great capability, great price!
The Red Dragon RX 580 is an excellent graphics card, perfect for gaming, and (currently) up to handling whatever you throw at it!

The GPU comes at a very reasonable price for an 8GB card, costing less than some of the more popular 6GB cards, and with two cooling fans, keeps cooler for longer!

I loved this book. I didn't realise how much they had been through as a couple. All the haters and threats. Eva has come out of this still feeling very much positive as she did at the beginning. I loved Stieg's books on The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo trilogy, it opened my eyes to a whole new government that was corrupt, and perhaps continues to be.

"Oh actually, I liked The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I didn’t really expect to, and I really did. I thought it was really well done. I liked it much more than I thought I would. That sounds like faint praise, but my expectations were that — like most big American studio films — it would be watered down and essentially de-toothed, de-clawed, whatever."

Perfect
We get to see a talking dragon, which is a bonus. We get to see more great actors. See more elves and humans. Oh, and don't get me started on the fighting scenes, especially when elves are involved. That river scene, when a character was jumping on heads, was epic. Re-watched that specific scene at least 30 times. It was just that good.

"And then, one that I can’t get away from is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. First of all, in America, we weren’t all that familiar with Chow Yun-Fat, and we were a little bit more familiar with Michelle Yeoh, but we weren’t all that familiar with Ziyi Zhang, who’s phenomenal in everything that she does. But we’d never seen… I was new to the business — I’d been in show business since 1997, so I was three years in show business, and a lover of movies my whole life. And I remember sitting in the theater going, “This is a turning point. I’ve never seen anything like this in my entire life.” And then it’s been copied now, over and over and over and over. And I would kind of argue that things like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I’d have to call that an original take on that genre. The story is beautiful, and visually, what Ang Lee was able to do… The fact that he can do that and make beautiful films like Brokeback Mountain, and then come back and do movies like Life of Pi, which is another visually stunning film. For me, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon might be on the list to stay. You and I could sit down and watch that movie right now and still go, “God is that cool! That is just cool.”"
