Solid quasi-medieval fantasy world with a central romance set amongst some political intrigue. I liked the way that they played with successional politics. I loved the twist that
Zav actually did kill his siblings, though I wish that scene had been less cut-and-dry that Zav wasn't truly at fault
. I think this book falls into a trap of needing the main characters to always be morally justified - let them be ugly sometimes! 

Also, it has undead dragon corpses littering the landscape that power an order of magical knights. That's just fun.
