I wanted to like this book a lot more than I did. It felt like Elspeth was just stumbling through a lot of the story until the big predictable reveal happened.
The ending of the book was the best part, in that the dark emotionally challenging payoff was finally happening. I probably won't read the sequel, I think this story works better as fade to black.
