3.5 stars.
It's a good but not a great read. Maybe reading all those 5 stars reviews set the bar too high. Reading the first 100+/- pages I even wondered what all the fuss was about and almost sat the book aside. But I stayed with it since EVERYONE gave the books such wonderful reviews. I'm glad I did. The second half of the book was non-stop action even if many of the secondary characters were underdeveloped and one dimensional at best. In the end I did end up liking it...I even thought about the book all night after reading the final chapter...but to me a 5* review has to be more. Great from beginning to end, rich characters through out and this book just didn't have that. Still looking forward to the next in the series and hoping for more character development.
