This was a really enjoyable story. I didn't actually expect to enjoy it, as I haven't been in the mood for YA lately. But the 2 MC's were both wonderful characters to get to know. I really enjoyed their relationship and how they slowly learned to trust each other. I'm interested in how the story will continue in the next book and be completed. The magic is very cool, and i like how it may actually be a little bit of science too. I hope it's explained a little more in the next book. And Inshara was a surprise. I'm not sure if I liked her character showing up so far into the story, but I like her as an antagonist.
