this whole series is so far and definitely my second favorite of all time (nothing can beat Outlander by Diana Gabaldon). I love the writing and the characters and that not everything wraps up the way you'd want it and that the story works with real events rather than rewriting a whole era. it was fascinating and I will definitely be rereading it and suggesting it to everyone I know. 
 SPOILER!!! 
 PS I actually cried when Daniel was declared dead.
