Review: Cut out the stuff at the beginning of each chapter, get another 2 stars

This is the second in the trilogy and I have to say, I skipped a lot of it. Once you get to the action of the story it's good. But like the first of these books, Cardew uses the first half of the chapters to give an encyclopedia-like history of that is unnecessary and dull. Since I read the first book, and had the glossary in the back, I really didn't need this at the beginning of each chapter. Like I said, I skipped most of it. I will get the last of the series, just because I am interested to see what happens. I like the characters, I like the action, and I want more of that. Would I recommend the books? Probably not because of the long winded stuff at the front of the chapters. I don't want to recommend a book and then recommend you skip half of it to get to the good parts. I received a free copy of this book to review which in no way affected my review.
