Query: Dull and unimpressive

Do you ever get a feeling of dread as you pick up a book you're reading? I can't stand it when that happens to me. I enjoy reading and if I'm dreading it it takes all the fun out of things! If you understand what I'm saying RUN FROM THIS BOOK NOW!!! This is quite possibly one of the worst books I have ever read. It was just dull. It was uninteresting, cliched and it just never picked up. It never became REAL for me. It was just a book with paper pages - far from the new, intriguing world that beckons me to enter when I read Fantasy.I felt as though I was reading a book that took a bunch of great ideas from other popular Fantasy books and recycled them into one. I have no problem with that, if something interesting is the result. This was not the case with _Kingmaker's Sword_. If you'd like to read a book that brings all to life what this book failed to, read Jennifer Roberson's Sword Dancer series. I felt as though I was reading a very poor imitation of it!
