For instance, trying to get my tired brain to take in this page of info dump concerning wizards, lineages, rebel lords, dragon-slaying and an amulet was too much on the train this morning.

This guy in town this morning. Hard to read his sign,but it says "Remembering Charlie Kirk". Be amazed if many people in town this morning know or care who Kirk was.

This book is full of great ideas but has a woman problem. I was gritting my teeth as the world building is so good, but then one particular paragraph made me immediately say "nope" and shut the book on the wy to work this morning.
