Large portions of the book are given over to characters repeating the goings on to each other - goings on which the reader already knows, because they READ ABOUT IT HAPPENING. (Read: every one of Tavalisk and Gamil's ridiculous duologues. And Grift and Bodger. And Maybor and Crandle. Kill me now.) Abay (Ibrahim) Qunanbayuli(1845-1904). Abay was born in 1845 at the bottom of the Chingiz Mountain in the today's Abay district (former Karkaraly) located in Eastern Kazakhstan region (formerly, the Semipalatinsk region). Like trust, people want to feel safe. Thesepower wordsmake them either fear for their safety or trust that you are giving them safety. For all that not much happens in the grand scheme of things I was still caught up in the story and eager to find out what happens. It really feels just like an extremely long intro and it ends on a whimper, almost no climax to speak of. The constant POV changes was a bit annoying as there were so many, on top of the main ones there were other single POV's dispersed throughout. For a debut book though it's not bad and even if it's a product of its time I still enjoyed it enough to continue on.

The author also made the choice to make all the villains pov characters. This is a bit problematic. Firstly they are uninteresting evil characters. Secondly I now get to see all their plotting which takes any mystery out of the story. It gets worse. All the intrigues of the bad guys get repeated. Let me explain: Bad Guy 1 does intrigue x against Bad Guy 2 ( we learn this from Pov of bad guy 1) but later we read the pov of Bad Guy 2 where he finds out about the intrigue against him and figures it all out. Later we read in a chapter how bad guy 1 finds out that his plan against bad guy 2 failed miserably. Do this x 1000 and you have the book. It's boring because nothing of these chapters is new information. Oooo-kay. What we have here in the first sentence are three distinct and complete phrases that could stand along by themselves, but are connected by punctuation. The first two a linked with a semicolon - this is fine, as this is one of the functions a semicolon can serve. Semicolons are Advanced Punctuation, so it is then surprising to find a comma given a job too big for it. Commas are not used to connect independent clauses, they are used for lists or dependent clauses. You can fix this by putting a period where the comma is, or by moving the semicolon to the comma and putting a period there. And then it happens again in the next big sentence! I might be able to live with this kind of thing if it were an isolated incident, but it happens All. The. Time.

People like to have money. People fear not having money. These words tap into the emotions surrounding greed and the fear of scarcity:So, anyway. We also have a young knight by the name of Tawl. Yes, really. I'm not kidding. That's his name. He don't like it either. Well, he's supposed to strike out and find the Chosen One (see paragraph #1), but doesn't know where to look. All he's told by the wiseguy that set him on his quest is that he was looking for... drumroll a boy.

The deed is done, master." Lusk barely had a second to notice the glint of the long-knife, and only a fraction of that second to realize what it meant. For a pretty hefty book not a lot actually happens in it really. I'm not saying it's bad but it is a bit slow. All books are divisible into two classes, the books of the hour, and the books of all time" [John Ruskin Sesame and Lilies]

At about 2am this morning I finally laid The Baker’s Boy to rest. As the first of three books that make up JV Jones’ Book of Words series, there’s much more to come- I wasted no time of getting started with volume II, A Man Betrayed, whilst eating my breakfast. My haste in moving onto the next book was less to do with exceptional writing (a far cry from it) and more to do with the fact that the final chapters of the book provide absolutely no closure on any of the characters, nor any of the story threads, leaving the reader with a cliff hanger that would do the most salacious soap opera proud.

Had elements of Robin Hobb in there (published the same year as Royal Assassin actually), though sadly this comparison only goes to show how much better Robin Hobb's series was.
