I loved the stories within the stories that told the mythologies of the world. The world-building was unique and left one wanting to know more.
The plot was rather thin especially from the middle to the end of the book. It felt unfinished and ended with a cliffhanger. The book was short enough that the 2nd book could have been included. It seems a recent thing to publish a series of shorter books rather than a larger one (GRRM being an exception). I suppose they can get more money that way.
I'm not sure I will get the next book as much as I want to see how the author wraps things up. I just feel cheated by having to get 2 books when they could have been combined.
Frost is a consummate writer. His wordcraft is exceptional. I'm surprised he isn't more well known.
I think he's better at writing short stories as shown with all the stories in this book and the fact that the plot doesn't really seem to move on. You get dribs and drabs after the beginning about the main character Leandra/Jax and her parents. You never find out about her mother at all really. Soter, her mentor and protector in a way, we never know much about at all. I hope that the 2nd book ties all this up, but again I'm worried because it felt cheated out of information in this first book.… (plus d'informations)
