As someone who has read and re-read Tolkien stories for years, I was instantly drawn to this book.Baleron is a debonair rapscallion but he does love his family. I could just see the precarious glint in his eyes as he did things that were mischievous including his womanizing.He was instantly my favorite character.  Even when I found out he had some serious issues brewing, I felt he would find a way to do the right thing.There is a good amount of drama and suspense throughout and I was thoroughly immersed within a few minutes. This is a fast  paced read- nothing drags.This book quickly became a favorite read.  It was the first I read by this author but definitely will  not be the last.I could see this book being made into a movie as it has all the right elements.
