I LOVED this book.
The prose is good.
The plot is classic, but the point of view is unique and awesome. She takes the basic idea of good vs. evil, and then makes you sympathize with the evil side. The bad guy is still clearly bad, but you understand why. I feel like when authors normally try to play with this good/evil concept, they just end up making the evil into good. But here, evil is still evil.
And the setting is interesting, it draws from mythology and characters we've seen before, but in a good way.
Basically, I thought she tried to make a story that we are all familiar with, but then change the point of view. And I thought she did it well :)
