I really really liked this book. I loved the two POVs, the story was really engaging, and I am fighting the urge to immediately go buy the second book.
I was worried halfway through the action was going to slow down but I was very wrong. There were 3 pages near the end where I went on an "emotional rollercoaster" (my partners words). I thoroughly enjoyed this and think it is a spectacular adult fantasy.
