I want to like this series, I really do.  But I can't figure out the plot, the reason for this story.  Why must the heroine hid out with bandits?  What benefits do her abilities give her?  How can she use them?  Why the destruction of her people?  Why is there no group fighting against the destruction of her people?  If they don't care, why should I?  When the Praetor destroys entire villages why is there not some underground activity?  Usually when there is a pogrom there is some reason, even if it is simply hatred.  Usually there are people fighting against it.  Here it seems to be government led, and at the end of book 3, I don't know why.  I know nothing about the Praetor other than suppositions I have come to based upon traditional plot structure.  Engage me!  Give me something!  This heroine seems to be reacting to what goes on around her rather than seeking out answers.  That, in my opinion, makes for a boring read.
