the witty conversation of elaborate vocabulary is entertaining. I feel you would have to be a certain type of person to really enjoy this book, and the average mainstream fantasy person wouldn't find this particularly interesting or worth thier time. Good humor for those that can navigate the dialogue though, as it brought a few smirks and grins, but this was one of those books where you read a chapter or two, take a break, then come back to it later. Easier to do since its short stories. Read a short story, come back later sorta deal.  I didn't hate it, but I didn't love it either, and to be just 'okay' to me is something I think I could read while sitting in a waiting room, and this doesn't quite fit the bill for that.
