This is a really good book. There's great world building and character setup. But I will say the first half didn't grab me. It started off slow - granted it set the story up for the second, action packed half, but it was a struggle. I dropped the book for a while and ended up listening to a portion of it via audio. But it once the scene was set, it was a wrap. And I was literally shook towards the end. Now I want to finish the series. Well done Sanders...you've got a fan.
