I did discover ...I was unsettled as you were, John. I did discover (too late to help me over the first third) that there's a character list in the back. <br /><br />I think there was another problem going besides the time and the number of characters--maybe two. First, the multiple POVs mean I don't get close to anyone, don't see the others from the eyes of that one or two main characters I've grown to love. I didn't, frankly, love any of them.<br /><br />The other factor is that many of the chapters, especially the early ones, started us with a character whose identity we had to figure out. I was OK with that the first time, especially when we finally found out who the cart driver was. But when the same sleuthing was needed for Cal-raven and then the Ale Boy, well ...
