The Price of Valour (The Shadow Campaigns, #3)

I'm going to DNF this one.
There is nothing really wrong with this book, but there's also nothing really right about it, either. While I enjoyed the first volume quite a lot, and the second so so, now I find myself feeling apathetic about the whole thing. Perhaps I got older and more dinosaury, or maybe the plot got less good.
The characters act childishly, the sense of gunpowder/revolution/magic is gone, and the political situation is a cardboard imitation of the European 17-18th century wars. Not quite how it started. And I don't want to over-analyze the whole thing, either. I tried, didn't work out, shrug, move on.
We shall not limerick today.

"Started rather naive - or I got grumpier and more dinosaury since I last read the second book - with waaaay too many info dumps on what happens in the first two installments. Kind of improves a little later on, but I don't feel as enthused as I was in the past. We shall see."
