DNF at 9%. I'm so disappointed. I loved "A Taste of Gold and Iron" and was seriously looking forward to a new book from this author. But "Running Close to the Wind" is VERY tonally different. You could tell me it was written by a different author entirely and I would believe you.

The crude humor, constantly sexual innuendos, and the MC constantly calling himself a "sexy little slut" unironically. The MC is also REALLY annoying and unlikable.

I don't think the book is bad, its just not for me. :/
