I really struggled with the first two books. They were very hard for me to get into, just because they were so confusing. I felt like if I understood everything that was happening along with all of the terminology being used, then I would be enjoying it. I could tell it was interesting, but I honestly wanted to quit out of pure frustration. Thankfully, this book had been recommended to me by a friend whose opinion I trust implicitly, so I decided to keep going. And whoa! Was I in for a treat! By the middle of the third and definitely by the end, I could NOT put this book down! I was so desperate to find out what happened with every character and to figure out all the mysteries within the story.  I was not disappointed. At the end of the fifth book I understood the significance and importance of the first two books. They laid a very solid foundation that set the rest of the story beautifully in motion. And  one plus, I don't feel like anything was left unanswered.  I have a new favorite author. Thank you Mr. Howey for such a great story!
