Very fast paced with rowdy men and testosterone all over the pages. Its very funny to see the portrayal of the warriors and nobles act like immature and impatient children throwing insults at each other. One minute its child-like barbs being spewed at one another. Brothers who hate each other, but never eat at the same table, much less have some tea together in the same room. They don't even really know each other.
They are little boys on the pages that can't make up their minds one second, then act as though they are in complete control of their affairs the next, then they're stomping their feet like children again on the next page.
The women of this story, though, are very strong. And they love the men despite their immaturity and disgusting habits to show off to one another.
I couldn't read much farther past chapter ten when the male figure of the book, Axis, snapped impatiently at the heroine of the book, Faraday. I could see this book would not hold my attention much further as I willed in my mind, when will the characters growup to the ages they are portrayed on the pages?
After reading the back of the book, I thought the book looked very promising with a rich adventure. But I was very wrong. This book should be in the teenager section instead of in with fantasy and adult novels.
Its a bummer to find out that this is a series. Guess I won't be reading these anymore....
