I started reading it in November, took some breaks in
between major sections to read other things, and
finished it in February.  I thought the end of the
book came with a great rush and the ending quite
satisfying as many elements we had been following over
the whole book came together. It also left me hungry
to read more about this world.

I think at one time I might try out listening to all
26 CDs of it and see how experiencing it a second time
around will be.
