I did like this book. I found myself reading it while stirring a pot on the stove, and "rescheduling" a trip to town so that I could stay at home with the book.

The "bad guys" were really icky. The author was a little preachy toward the end (though I've read other reviews that indicate this is normal for her).

There was a lot of build up, the book was engrossing, but it seemed like the good vs. evil battle was tied up a little too easily and neatly. The whole denouement didn't take nearly as many pages as I would have expected.
