This book was an adventure, and a dark one at that. The writing was so gripping and the characters were so unexpected, as well as the plot. Morgan Rhodes always does that--makes you wonder what you think will happen next, and then the whole plot flips over, leaving you breathless but you want more. It was so much fun to read, and so much fun to make predictions, and all of the POV's were completely engrossing and I wanted more of it. Did I hate anything about this book? 
 ...Not really, no. It had a full story arc, as well as each character and plot, before leaving a great gap for book two and three, which I can't wait for. This was amazing, and I can't wait for Frozen Tides!
