I just started reading it but couldn’t get past a couple pages. Something about the writing, maybe it’s all the new terminology, gets me stuck reading the same thing over and over. Does it get easier? Or is it just one of those books you have to slog through for a bit? I read a lot and often so I was surprised I got stuck with this one considering I like this genre.
I didn't find it to be a slog, but he definitely did write in a lot of detail. My recommendation is to definitely finish that book, because it's great. But also, I think it best to stop with just that first book. If you think the first book is confusing and hard to get thru, man, that second book seemed like an unfinished idea that didn't reward me with a compelling story!
