I really enjoyed this book. At times, it is heartbreaking and others it is hopeful and inspiring. Ending is satisfying! Well thought out and written. Will definitely read the rest of the series.

Very good book. Well written and brilliantly paced. However, I am now traumatised and very concerned for what was going on in the author’s head when he wrote this.
