I have really been enjoying this series as it’s a quick read but full of imagination. Even though the author isn’t as descriptive as some are for individual scenes, her concisiveness makes for a fast-paced read that still leaves you eager to find out what will happen next, but not leave you in angst over it for several hundred pages.

Not my favorite book in this series. I abhor fanatical desert people and any story that includes them. The way they treat their women is hateful. Had I know this book revolved around this topic, I may have passed it up third book in the series or not....

That said, for the most part I did enjoy this book. Though the desert people and the time Alanna spent with them (which was 3/4 of the book) was beyond boring and aggravating. I enjoyed her time with George and most of her time with Jonathan. I'm not sure I like the ending but with book 4 still left of this series, there is time for Jonathan to make amends
