Yeah, Moira is a really great character, and the top-of-the-food-chain shuffle is a cool idea, so the Divided Worlds series is now on my radar for summer reading. I'm impressed how the author always seems to move the story forward, and enjoyed all the twists and turns playing on my expectations. Also I'm much more interested in fantasies that start or end in the recognizable world (and there have been a few good ones). No spoilers, but a boring, mundane, regular place is the perfect launching pad for this extended story. Another reviewer commented on the abruptness of the ending, but I started reading this KNOWING ALL WELL that it's a trilogy (at least), so I was expecting the break. RECOMMENDED.
