There was nothing wrong with this book in particular. The prose was excellent and well-written, and I think the world is interesting with a lot of potential. I like the powers and the way that they're used, but I couldn't personally connect with the characters and found it difficult to engage in the story. I fully believe that this book probably has lots of very interesting things to come, and lots of readers will absolutely and rightfully love it, but it wasn't for me.

Thanks to Hodder & Stoughton for a review copy of this book, it has not affected my honest opinions.
