Overall I enjoyed it but would be unlikely to reread it… the issues above combined with the one below, made it a likely one time only story for me. Could be great for a different type of reader though.
Now… light possible spoilers ahead…
I didn’t care for the ending. To me it wasn’t a good set up for the next book but rather a huge loss or a huge throwaway when everything somehow resolves in the next book’s initial chapters. The wrong kind of cliffhanger to try to entice you to pick up book two.
