I love YA fantasy and I am really enjoying this series so far. The concept is original and the world-building has been really well done.****SPOILERS**************SPOILERS*******I was disappointed in some of the characters that were killed off; particularly Nio who was so interesting. I guess I was hoping for some sort of redemption, but alas, it was not to be.This is a good book for teens and young adults, but not younger than 13, I would say. There's no sex or profanity, but there's a lot of killing in this installment, and some of it is violent, like when Smede gets eaten alive by cats. It's not really a complaint, just an observation.That being said, I love this series so far and I am anxious to continue the next installment.
