Query: It was a good start ...

The beginning of this book was fantastic. I loved the characters and the storyline. I was lost in the new world that had been created for me.Unfortunately, it didn't last. The next thing I knew I was reading about some "alien" race invading my medieval world. The book kept going on and on about things I found utterly boring. I lost interest in the characters, and I found my reading times to be toilsome, not pleasurable.
