Meh...I was hoping for a bit more, and the end seemed rushed and trite. The heroine is not as strong as potentially she could have been, and the strings were too neatly tied up. Interesting combination of historical and fantasy--and I liked the dragons and pips almost more than the heroine. Good stylistic read, but the story wasn't totally captivating.

Gail Carson Levine: Ever
Read this in two hours on the way to Seattle. Kezi and her will to survive, mixed with Olus' infatuation/love for her was an interesting combination that was an awesome read! I love strong heroines!
