This book was a fantasy I think about slavery and sex trafficing and bondage, not something I enjoy. But the characters were complex if off putting. I will admit I really was interested in seeing how the author wrote her way out of the complex issues she created. So towards the end I was reading and turned the page and it ended. It was like a book was torn in half and there was no conclusion. I am sure since this is a trilogy she wanted you hungery for the next but I want a whole book with a good ending or a bad ending not cut off nearly mid sentence. Won't be continuing with this author. I would have given it a 3 if I had been satisfied with the plot ending.
