Yeah: for the first quite a lot of pages I felt I was dutifully working at it rather than, ya know, reading it. After that I got quite into the swing of things. Even so, in the later stages I had deliberately to devote a couple of hours to finishing the thing, as otherwise my reading of it could have dribbled on for days.
I'd had Codex on the maybe shelf, but it sounds like I can pass on that.
That would be my advice.
What can I say, I still want more, after Harry Potter.
He is too young for you, M. There are plenty of other fish in the fryer.
