This is a really great book - it moves fast, but at the same time develops the characters to the point where you will really feel for them.  Mave is a wonderful villain, in that I really, truly hated him and hoped he would come to a bad end.  Jeda is a perfect anti-hero, and the girls Kala and Kara are so different from each other and unique - I was really impressed with how the authors developed them.  The Black and White Covens created a wonderful contrast and I found it highly entertaining; the Assassin's Guild is just vague enough that you are drawn between unease over the assassinations, and interest that they would provide this sort of service for hire.  Fans of epic fantasy or good, old-fashioned, high-quality storytelling will all love this book - highly recommended!!
