This was a fun book to read; unpredictable, and full of plot twists.  Excellent descriptions, great worldbuilding, and characters with individuality.  Eno's quirky personality and straightforward approach make him very likable, and you're rooting for him the entire way.  He's a man of his times, and not the least bit humble, but also not vain or petty.  The language was very approachable, and the author's decision to use modern idiom and not attempt to mimic an ancient language style was the right one - it works very well, and makes this an extremely readable book, which I recommend to anyone who loves high-action historical fantasy.
