Very enjoyable, but I already know that BS can do much better, so 4 stars. The most boring parts of the book for me were the ones with Serene...I didn't like her that much. I am sure I could give this book 5 stars...if the chapters with Raoden were longer;) Reading about him and Elantrians was much more interesting than reading about Serene and how clever she was...it got boring pretty fast. Other than that, the book was very good:)
