I really enjoyed this book, I like how it started quite gently, letting you learn about the characters and their backgrounds, then the mystery started building and then that ending!!! I can't wait for book 2 to see what happens next.
Character wise, I really like Joss and how she deals with balancing her duty as an executioner with what I think is her calling as a healer. I can't wait to see what happens with her and Aric whether they are destined to be enemies or if they will come back together. I also loved the introduction to Callan and can't wait to see how his story develops
