I hear you DofA! The line above is a great starting line but I've put the book aside at Chapter 2 for now. Like you I couldn't get into it. I do hope to try it again one day but I've just discovered Terry Pratchett so I'll be immersed in discworld for a while! I must say, isn't it funny, the first line of The Colour of Magic didn't grab me but the story did, whereas the first line of The Shifter is clever but the story doesn't grab me. Wonder why?
Janice gives such worthy advice on her website, I owe it to her to try and read The Shifter. I did really like the concept behind her magic...
Oh, yes. The concept of healing magic and shifting pain really interests me. I'm not sure why the book can't hook me though.
