Out of the many books I've started reading and dropped, or even keep on reading, this one has my captivated so early on in the story more so than any of the other ones so far. The quality of the writing is excellent, with not too many huge info dumps, and the info dumps are still easier to read through than most other stories. The character's haven't gotten a whole lot of time to let their colors fly yet, I believe, but a good picture is being painted of who they may potentially turn out to be. I hope the author is able to continue on with this story, and is able to maintain a sane state of mind once this book starts receiving the popularity it deserves.
