Just finished The Runelords, Book One. It had some neat ideas in regards to the endowments and such, but the overall writing felt amateurish.

I was also disappointed with how easily a man with thousands of endowments of wit could be foiled in his plans. The whole book just came off as a writer overreaching his own abilities. It seems like he'd have been better off teaming up with another writer and just being the idea-man or something.

Bottom line is that I will not be continuing on with the series.
