Like, embedded in my man rod and yelling into my ear in a deep, baritone voice that if I leave the book my manhood would be ripped off.

I thought "oh what a stupid book" but now i just loe the introduction, because i understand it haha :D
"Is that a unicorn? No I'll wear the purple shoes and who painted the kitten?"
Ianna wrote: At first, I thought it was the stupidest opener ever, until I actually got to the dialouge. It was about three pages worth of descrptions.

Then I was hooked when Nat and Bart began exchanging words.
yeah same here. at first I didn't think i'd like it much... but I was wrong. Now that I know Barti's character better, it's one of my fav opening in all of the books I've read!! I LOVE Barti!!!

Then again who doesn't?
at first i didn't understand the time shifting....

The intro for AoS is my second favorite in the series, with the big cheese PG.

I didn't like GE's intro as much as the other's for some reason...

However, the list of characters was a nice touch.
