I loved this book (and this series).  The author has a gift for creating her fairy tale world.  Although this is a paranormal series, the entire story is plausible.  What I love best about Ms. Hall's books is that I am never left thinkng that something is off.  Her world is totally believable.  The main characters react in a true manner.  Their is no conflict just for the sake of it.  Every plot and conflict moves the story along in a believable way.  I have read plenty of books where the characters do not read as "real".  As in no person would react that way.  What I love about this book is that every thing makes sense.  I love that in this book, the author provides a more detailed vision of Kingdom.  I also like that it is a darker novel than the first two in the series.  My only issue is with the length.  There is so much that happens in this novel, a longer book would help a reader absorb it better.  Especially with the chemistry between Violet and Ewan.  With so much going on in this story, the romance between the two feels a bit rushed.  This series is a must read and I look forward to the next installment in the series.
