This book is a HUGE sausage party. Where them girls at? I'm sorry, Saphira doesn't count - the ladies either unimportant oh-so-hot side characters, georgeously unconscious damsels in distress or an old witch. 

Apart from a unnecessarily long plot with so many things that lead absolutely nowhere and a far-too-flawless protagonist - this was surprisingly entertaining and a page turner. Written by a horny teenage boy dreaming about adventures for horny teenage boys dreaming about adventures.
