It was an awesome book, with typical eriksonian book characters.. ie, somehow, equal measures difficult to get in, difficult to get out, adventurous, magical, but also, with that characteristic irreverant energy..
As for the downpoints, well, wished Karsa's legacy would have been explored more, and also, there is another book before we actually get to see Karsa's story in a Karsa series!!!!!!??. Okay.
