... a year late.
I only read the first couple of pages. But phew, what a start.

Yes, a very gripping start! I couldn't put it down once I got it. ^_^

Same here! But then, I do that with all of Chris's books.

I didn't like the start the first time I read The Fade, but on my reread I was like "Ah, the good ol' days back when Orna was a relatively happy badass before DEATHDEATHDEATH."

Done! And it was great. I am no longer sorry that The Fade isn't about Orokos' fade. Because I think I liked this better than Storm Thief.

Oh, I definitely liked this better than Storm Thief. ^_^ I quite enjoyed this, though I still like Poison more. ^_^

I had my difficulties getting into The Fade at first. But back then, I was sitting on the tram with children throwing snot at each other and couldn't quite focus. Once I arrived home, I had gotten used to the first person narration and the fast pace. (Which after DEATHDEATHDEATH got slower, actually.)
SPOILERS for Storm Thief and The Fade in particular:
Both Storm Thief and The Fade had these protagonists who didn't really succeed in changing the course of events. Though Orna really tried... sigh. I probably liked The Fade so much because of the world. The whole "living in large caves and tunnels" made my day.
