I had a hard time getting into this book because I really didn't get to liking Aly. She was far too cocky and spoiled compared to the heroine's in the previous series of Tortall books. Also, his story was not as instantly captivating for me as the other series that I've read by Pierce.

My favorite character was Nawat, though, who's flirtations from a crow's-view cracked me up several times.

Overall, it was still a good story because I got an update on previous characters from past series.
