I really, really enjoyed this book. That being said, I had a terrible time getting into the world that the author created. I was really confused on the terms for things, the geography, the royal family and heirs-but I stuck in out and in the end I am pretty sure I have enough of a grasp on what is happening to get me through this series. It took me a bit to find Jin and Amani likeable. I found Amani lacking and the mysterious Jin questionable rather than mysterious. Give the author a break, you can tell this is a first work. During the final chapters I was routing for Amani, I was actually surprised by the twists that the author dished out-go author! I still find Jin annoying. I will be reading the rest of this series just to find out if the Rebellion is successful. The secondary characters are just as interesting as the primary. Another huge plus.
Read through the First to Read program.
