Review: the story line is all over the place

I'm fairly conflicted about this book, on the one hand it's very engrossing and dramatic but on the other hand it sometimes seems too fantastic even for a fantasy book. The background of the characters and the world seems a little too fluid and on the fly to root the reader in the created world. What makes a good fantasy novel is having both the characters and the world compelling and believable and unfortunately this lacks both.
