But it was well told and held my interest, making it easy to push on until things started to come together for me. There is some romance here, a love triangle of sorts, but like the rest of the book it's not quite that simple. The first of a trilogy, this book wound up well enough feel complete, but also with much still unresolved. I really enjoyed this, a firm 4/5, so I have dived straight into the second.

I enjoyed this one a while back! So the rest of the series is worthwhile?
