So good - I had such a hard time putting this down. I loved the unpredictability in it, and how the book methodically but engagingly unfolded. And I LOVED the characters. 

The secondary characters were so well done - I love it when a book has great supporting characters and this was fantastic. You either loved or hated them, felt what they felt, and they had such personalities. And of course, I loved Elspeth and Ravyn. I loved that their relationship veered from the stereotypical. Enjoyed this so much and looking forward to the next.
