5.0

Yet again, Turner has written an enthralling, entertaining story that's basically just about two men walking for days on end. But there's so much more: the insight into what Kamet really thinks about the Attolians, the hints at Eugenides's sly plans (never fully revealed until the end, of course), the myths and customs to provide depth to the story.

I have no idea how to explain why I love this series so much, but I'm sad and excited to finish the series with the next book. As always, excellent narration by Steve West.
