A wonderful book, full of magic, suspense, romance, and history. Like any series, the first book is an introduction to the characters and backgrounds - it sets a scene. This is a story about diversity and acceptance; on the surface we are all different, yet we are all created equal. It is a love story that crosses social boundaries and teaches us that hatred and fear of those different than ourselves only tears us down, and welcoming change and acceptance is the only way forward. The author is a historian and professor, and she knows her stuff. Like any book, there were parts that I kind of curled my lip at, or didn't agree with, but overall it is well-written and easy to follow. I loved all four of the ADoW books, and can't wait for the next two!
