Unfortunately, there is still always a risk of slight spoilers despite my best efforts. If you feel something in my review is a spoiler please let me know. Thank you. I really loved this book. I wasn't sure if I would to be honest. It's a slow-moving book but not at all boring. I found I breezed through this so fast. It's a beautiful story about a girl how finally stops just accepting everything for how it is and decides to find out why. The world described here is beautiful and magical while terrible at the same time. While I wouldn't consider it epic, the romance was different and refreshing. It ended on a serious cliffhanger so now I can't wait for book two.

This book has a very promising start, setting up an interesting world with complicated systems of magic and social structure. Nirrim and Sid are both fascinating characters, and their adventures are enjoyable to read. There were a couple of times something happened and it didn't get the full weight it needed in the writing -- for instance, a character hits Nirrim in the head with a lit lantern, and it barely gets a beat right at that moment, though there's plenty of commentary on the scar it leaves later. I also saw almost all of the twists coming a long time before they were revealed. However, my biggest problem is the ending, which seemed very dark and abrupt to me. I realized after finishing this book that there is a sequel, which presumably will lead to a better resolution. I will probably read it, in order to get a better understanding of what happened there at the end. So, my recommendation is to think of this as the first half of the story, and have the second book on hand. ( )
