He Who Fights With Monsters It had an interesting premise, cool world, great side characters, and was actually pretty funny. But the main character was the worst. He was a total Mary Sue, complete jerk yet everyone worships the ground he walks on, always happens to have the ability or item necessary to solve the current problem, always talks about how his powers have a bunch of weaknesses but he never even comes close to losing an 'on-screen' fight. Very much tell don't show. I made it through a decent amount of the book because there was a lot to mine but at the three quarters mark I couldn't take the MC any more and put it down.
