The first few pages
The first page was surprisingly challenging. It starts off in French and I wasn't expecting that. Luckily the translation for the French is at the bottom of the page so that wasn't so bad. Two characters are talking in Russian (translated to English) and French and it goes back and forth. The opening in French also has a historical note reference so right away I'm turning to the back to read about what Napoleon was doing with captured territories in 1805 and how the spelling used is a dig about him by the characters talking.
About 5 more historical notes and the first few pages were done. I'm assuming that will get easier as I get more into the story and time.
