It took me a long time because of the different format. I found it very hard to get into because there wasn't a whole lot of flow between one part and the next. I have terrible problems reading things like this and anthologies because of the abrupt change of story- I have concentration problems. I liked the Stone Telling part of the book. I think it would have been easier to read and it would have made more sense to me if the other parts had been interwoven with the Stone Telling story. I kept asking myself as I read "but how does this connect to Stone Telling?" I knew that it wasn't necessarily supposed to shed any more light on that story, but I found myself wanting it to.
