I had to quit reading an indie book the other day because, despite finding a few narrative difficulties in the beginning, I wanted to know what happened to the main characters next. Then, in the middle, the writing went from workmanlike but readable to concrete-feet awful. Too bad. The premise was interesting.
But, fortunately, I downloaded Night Watch when it was on sale a few months ago and it's fantastic (even in translation, which is always hit or miss). And the book I read before the middle-slumped indie was Half a King by Joe Abercrombie, which was so good I'm still jealous. I enthusiastically recommend both!
