A pretty entertaining first book in a series. There are a fair amount of coincidences and common plot devices in this one, but there's enough that's unique that I'm curious about how the series unfolds. I do wish that the romance was either better developed or less developed. It's a very small part of the story, so when it (view spoiler)[played an important role in the novel's climax and big twist at the end (hide spoiler)] it came a bit out of the blue for me. 
 Nevertheless, I did like Devi and her cranky, tough-ass demeanor. I wish more folks would pick up genre fiction, because there are a lot of complicated, "unlikable" female characters happening in books like this that I think a lot of folks miss out on because of the genre.
