Three stars is the best I can do. I'm just flummoxed.
The idea is great, I like the story, just not how it unfolded. So far the only character I can get behind is Roen, the mercenary from a distant land with skin like sand, and Tzain the older brother of the main protagonist. The characters just flip flopped too much for me. I understand a bit of confusion and being at a loss as to who you are and what you should do especially considering the situations they all find themselves in, but it seemed they were changing who they were every chapter. And that ending?! Ugh! As much as I am not loving the way this series is unfolding, I am invested, which means I gotta wait for at least one more novel. WTF?!
