Query: Trudge

Thats a good word to describe this book, in comparison to the first one. The first one was great, a quick, fastpaced story with surprises and mystery throughout. This one, the characters are travelling on pointless 'adventures' through world after boring world. Zzzz. So, I had to trudge through this one.Barely anything important happens in this book, plotwise. If you don't have alot of time to waste reading detailed histories of Tad's one-stop fantasy-worlds, then just skip to the third book. Seriously, read the little blurb on what happens, and you will be no worse off.I found myself skimming through the pages to find something interesting. Not a good sign. Quite a disappointment after the marvelous first book. The cover art is quite nice, at least.
