Took me awhile to understand the set up of the village. Lots of characters with various paranormal abilities. Everything I had ever heard of some and some I hadn’t. Since it was a three book volume, I read all three. Each book gave me more insight to the characters. By the end of the third book, I wanted to read the fourth one. It just took me awhile to understand the characters. Who is good and who is bad? Most of the characters have various amounts of each, which keeps the reader guessing. ( )
