Finished reading this a few days ago. I loved it.
I didn't read anything about it before reading it so I could make up my own mind but since finishing I've read a fair few reviews which absolutely slate it.

Anyone read it?
What did you think?

    I read it a year or so ago. A brilliant beginning, it grabbed my attention and held onto it for nearly 900 pages. It did slow down a bit in the middle and I wasn't so keen on the last chapter, but overall a great read.

    I felt cheated by the ending. Ruined the whole book for me.
