Helpful Score: 6
I loved this book! I found the descriptive style of writing to be very cinematic. Having said that, I think this book would make a terrible movie! Epic in proportions, any movie would either be extremely long (in order to cover everything in the book), or would be so hacked to bits in order to get it within a practical time-frame, that it would be ruined. So, the reader is left to "see" the scenes on the theater screen of their mind.
I find many epics to be painfully tedious, but this was written in such an easy and amusing style, that it was a joy to read. It was certainly not dumbed-down, however.
