Loved the story, but it felt like 'Part 1' - it didn't feel like a complete story on its own. Yeah, I know it's part of a series, but I like individual books to feel like individual books - to actually have closure on something before opening another chapter later. So maybe the closure was Phan, maybe not, but it didn't feel finished. It felt like a random break to the story. I'll still give it 4.5 stars, rounded down to 4 (even though it probably has the re-readability that I require before I'll give a book 5 stars). If it had felt complete, I'd have given it 5.
