2nd time reading a few years after finishing the series, and going back to the beginning now knowing all the secrets is just fascinating. Loved it even more.

The book took a little for me to initially get into and follow but once I did it was a very enjoyable book. And after reading the sequels they were even better than the first. Loved the characters and how they wrestled with the choices they were being given, while using their wits and courage.
