First book in the trilogy. With this book, I had a hard time staying focused on the first half. Very descriptive about the area and current events in the small town. Just lost my focus while I was waiting for the story to begin. I was glad that I stayed with it and enjoyed the rest of the book. The other books are much better. I loved the idea of the Indian and Wraith...possibly my favorite characters.
