When I first downloaded this book, I was in no way prepared for what I would find once I began reading it. ORIGINAL AND BOLD! Lily starts out as a whiny and annoying character, but throughout book 1 and book 2 (The Underground City) there is a lot of really good character development where she is concerned. Watching the changes she undergoes is one of the most gratifying reading experiences. Bill, Lilys guardian angel, is a bit ... overbearing (?) ... in the first book. During the second, though, he becomes a much more realistic character. And that brings us to Tallis Black, the bladesmith. I have seen a lot of complaints about his accent and difficulty reading it, however I had no difficulty reading and understanding his dialogue. I found his accurately portrayed accent a stroke of brilliance that brought his character to life more than any other factor. I am SO SO SO SO SO glad that I downloaded this book and I cannot wait for the third one!!
