Never got anywhere didn't care about the characters didn't understand the world which wasn't making any internal sense. No plot, no action and generally poor writing too.
Something about some guy makes a bunch of magical items with embodied souls in them only he doesn't know that, and then a team of magical aliens come along and want to recruit him to be their ultimate king, only he's refused them a load of times before. So the aliens set fire to the entire world (apart form his village which escapes down a whirlpool with his girlfriend), and he starts a last ditch defiance again, only this time one of the magical items comes to life and seduces the Ferryman to kill the aliens who flee.
I gave up at this point.
It might have been part of a series, although there's no indication to say so. - usually I can pick up past storylines easily enough, but I've no idea this time. The characters were wooden, the magic and world completely flexible, the mythic names jumbled. and well who cares. (
