Word on the internet is that The Rithmatist is more fun if you are into Real Time Strategy (RTS) games. Predictably enough, I am not, and I found the book a pretty slow slog at first. The last fifty pages were fantastic, and I read that far, so I was curious about what was going to happen. The premise is very interesting and different, and I really liked Joel's friend Melody. She was obnoxious, but I thought she was funny. Brandon Sanderson is a popular author and reviews of this book are overwhelmingly positive. Despite my "meh" reaction, chances are you will like this book. (MHouse)
