Best thing about this book - it was free.The set up was pretty rushed and then . . . snore. The way the dad tells the son about the circumstances of his birth, the quick rundown of the gods, that was all just a little too rushed and not very credible. Then they talk about the choosing but for some reason have no idea about any of the gods that are involved with the professions. I think the biggest weakness of the whole book was the time it took to get to the choosing itself. The additional travelers felt very contrived. The price of clothing for beloved ex-prostitutes and the splitting of the check at taverns is not my idea of a good read. I gave up at the 30% mark.
