This is not as good as "The Emporer's Edge" but it is a good story and I want to read the next book. So where does it fall a little flat? It's hard to say, I have to compare this to Emporer's Edge. In that story you had these highly dynamic, sometimes coldly sinister (Sicarius) people who kept up the constant tension. In torrent, the characters you saw the most of were entirely too ordinary, and even lazy and failures in some cases. There doesn't even to be a seed of greateness in anyone except Temi or the elf like guys, but those guys seem relegated to the background most of the story (which was disappointing).So to be clear. I liked it, I just wish it was as good as the other series and I think it could be in the future, the first book just fell a little flat for the first half or so.
