Pretty good. The biggest thing was that this medieval romance actually felt, y'know, medieval (I know just enough about the era that most medieval romances drive me nuts with simple, obvious errors). The criss-crossing feuds are excellent and very true to the Highlands, and their concern with oaths (especially oaths on someone's soul) is very medieval. Can you swear on someone else's soul, though? Hmmm. Anyway. The problem that started the whole thing was very realistic, and the revelations at the end about it fit perfectly with the revealed characters of those involved. Paddy's name change was maybe a little over the top, but I could see it - it was his idea, not his father's. And the various last-minute saves actually felt realistic, not deus ex machina. I like it.
