This book was surprisingly good, it was just one of those books that you pick up at the library, as you do. It didn't call out to me or anything, I just grabbed and signed it out. 

The imagery was fantastic, I really enjoyed picturing this world and what a part-bird part-dragon might look like. Echo is definitely one of my more favorite characters this year. She is a smart-ass, independent, young woman with the world's biggest chip on her shoulder, and did I mention she's a thief; world class from what I read. 

If you haven't started reading this series, I highly recommend it. I've only read one and I'm hooked.
