Overall I enjoyed the book,
The plot carried well from the first and I intent to read the final book of the series.
However, I felt there was much to be desired in explaining character motives (hopefully this will all come to light in the final book). I hope to be able to empathise with the characters and feel that the relationships they are building are justifiable.
