It felt rather overwrought with it’s own importance ( )

Eh. Seems to be part of a sort of meandering series, about a city/country/world (wasn't sure which) in Serious Trouble. (Aren't they always?)

Interesting world, nice quick read, but I don't feel any great urge to go pick up the others. At least partly, its that when I'm reading a series, I like to know what I'm in for... a defined series of known length and order, or a set of loosely connected books that each END PROPERLY. This was more like a chunk of story dropped out of nowhere. ( )

When a king gives an order you must obey. Even if the victim is to be you best friend. How to create things that should not be forced. I loved this one with more feeling and more deep love than the other 2. ( )
