This book was my kind of read – a crisp, fast-moving story with a deep world in the background and just the right amount of wit and grit to keep me turning the pages. Written completely in the first person and following the adventures of just one character, this was a pleasure to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I hadn\u2019t read any of the author\u2019s other books but it seems like this book was a very polished work. Every detail had meaning, the attention to details that served the main character throughout the story, and a feeling that I couldn\u2019t help compare to the Game of Thrones series of books. It wasn\u2019t quite as deep as those books are, but the realism of the characters and their flaws was there, along with a healthy dose of mystery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Apparently the second book in the series is coming in a month or two, so I\u2019ll definitely pick it up when it comes out – I don\u2019t think I can wait for the library to get it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
