However, with this in mind, I feel the description is at some points a little too intricate, it doesn't neglect the story, but there are elements of it you forget because you are so focused on creating a picture of the world.
One important detail I found out was that the blurb doesn't match the story. It says "Ten years ago, her mother was snatched by the royal guards" yet it mentions multiple times in the book the event was "seven years ago".
Overall I enjoyed the book. I found the story interesting, the world intriguing, and the characters mysterious, and will continue with the series, especially since the book ends on a gripping cliffhanger.
