For a first saga I must say that the author has made strong! It is entirely appropriate that the universe was created. It worked well, thorough and extremely rich in mythology and vocabulary. That said, he missed the rhythm for me to be totally into it, there are some lengths that I have somewhat stalled during my reading. It does not passionate from beginning to end me, but captivated me enough that I care about what would happen to these characters who drool as he takes is the least we can say it does not lace.
