I am enjoying these books so far, they are just LOOOOOOONG. I do think there is some opportunity to shorten them a bit. Everytime I thought we were past the the whinny woe is me stuff Ren fell back into it. They are still great though and I have enjoyed getting to know all of the characters. I will say some of the betrayals in this one had my jaw dropping wide open. I either didn't see them coming or had been weary but wasn't expecting it to happen the way it did. So watch out! I am ready for the final conclusion to this series, but I might take a break before reading the last one.
