DNF. Unfortunately, I could not finish this book which makes me a bit sad, but I just could not get into it. It started out great but then it started to drag. Just because I did not like it does not mean that somebody else would not jump all over this book. I would definitely recommend it for somebody who loves fantasy and romance.
I downgraded my rating after this book had marinated awhile. I enjoyed it, insomuch as I enjoy Neil Gaiman’s writing style - which definitely influenced my initial high rating. After some thought, though, I found the conclusion unsatisfying. I couldn’t really track the growth of the main characters over the course of the story, and also felt that Gaiman could have expanded on certain plot elements. Also, I was a little uncomfortable with Tristran initially enslaving the star, despite the fact that she was a woman and not a hunk of stone, as he was expecting. This was not done cruelly - Tristran was certainly not cruelly written - but the discomfort never left me.
