This book also continues to set up the confrontation with the Medes that is surely coming and furthers our insight into the politics at play. The union of Attolia, Eddis and Sounis under Eugenides will likely put a spoke in the wheels of the Medes' colonial aspirations.

I still enjoyed it but I prefer the earlier books, which are more heavily weighted toward adventure and discovery rather than courtly politics and war. Sophos makes for a lovable protagonist thanks to his kind heart and inquisitive nature. The dynamic between him and the other monarchs of the area settles into a nice place and I so desperately want them to be a team against the conquering force headed their way.
