Forewarning: you might want to read the Mage Winds trilogy before starting on this. It's not necessary because all of the main returning characters do have small explanations of who they are, but there are several returning characters.
On that note, there are a few too many characters of importance for my taste. Keeping track can be a little difficult, particularly when their descriptions aren't given immediately.
On the flip side, I love the main character. He's interesting and has a unique perspective.
The Valdemar books (that I've had the opportunity to read) are all excellent, and this is not an exception. The plot is interesting, the characters are engaging, and I think the main character might just be my favorite character in all of Valdemar.
