Book 3 of The Death Gate Cycle

Still waiting on that story.  Book three is still pretty much "go to that place and see what's there."  This is the third incarnation of that story, and at least the attached story had a bit more meat to it than before.  Part of it was that the main character seemed like he could be threatened a bit in this one.  Still, though, the characters are still incredibly passive, existing merely to show off the setting that was developed.  The payoff is going to have to be pretty big to justify the slog through all the exposition.  I guess we'll see where it goes.
