 Well, at least Lord Maccon wasn't the one being stupid this time. Unfortunately someone was being stupid. Possibly more than one person, though some of them were a little preoccupied with other things. More plot history is revealed! And it's all pretty wound together and a touch more than just a little sad. I hope that Alexia's scheme works, I really do. 
 I'm getting a little bored now but I'm not sure if it's because this was my 6th book in a row set in this world or if this story truly is dragging. I have one left and I'm almost reluctant to read it. Though, I am interested in reading the next series, about Alexia's daughter. Who was born at the end of this book! She's a fascinating child and I can't wait to learn more of her, though I feel the new series is where to go for this information.
