About halfway through, right to the point where I am pretty sure I know how it ends. As I said, damn depressing. But don't let me hinder your enjoyment.

Just finished Conn Iggulden's first Julius Ceasar novel. Very good stuff except for one bit of dialogue that came directly out of Dickens.

I'm in several religion / spirituality books mostly buddhist stuff along with Jesus for the Nonreligious by John Shelby Spong. He attempts to strip the nonsense out of the Jesus story to make him relevent to modern people <shrug> we'll see how he does.
