What we liked about this book: We all agreed this was a fun read, with a richly detailed world and a compelling central plot.

What we didn’t like: The central plot, though good, was obscured by far, far too much world building exposition and none of the characters really grew from their experience.

Verdict: 4 thumbs up, 1 thumbs down
