SLOWWWWWWWWW start. Ani/Isi is a pain in the royal petutie. But then, she starts to get a personality, and gain courage in who she is--not what she thinks she should be or what others want her to be. And then I couldn't put it down. There is action, fighting, murderous plots and interesting and dynamic characters and relationships. While I probably should have seen one of the twists coming, I was pleasantly surprised and satisfied with the ending. I know that this is book one of a "trilogy," but book two is about Enna (Ani/Isi's friend) and told from her perspective, and book three is from the perspective of a boy character who makes an appearance at the end of book one.
I am not in a rush to finish the trilogy, but I am very glad that I FINALLY read this one. Note this cover--this is the cover I own. The reprint editions are cheeseball with more "realistic" cover models. Bleck. Give this book at least 120 pages, it will pay off!
