I wasn't that impressed. For the first 50 pages Branwen is fiercely idiotic. So much so that I almost stopped reading a couple of times. But around page 54 she stops being insufferable and the story progresses with action and unexpected developments. But it never became fascinating or intriguing or engaging or any of those things that make me want to keep reading a book. I was going to give it 2 stars, but [a:Frewin Jones|279560|Frewin Jones|http://photo.goodreads.com/authors/1249507101p2/279560.jpg] winds things so nicely in the end it left me with a better impression than the beginning. And almost made me interested to read the next one. almost.
