The Emperor's Edge

Rereading The Emperor's Edge after reading it first one year ago. I remember thinking I liked it pretty well on my first read. I did not feel compelled to read the second in the series immediately. However, when months later I picked up the second, due to lack of other reading material, I liked it so much I sprinted straight through the other books in the series without stopping. I am enjoying my second read of this first in the series. The book has a humor as it talks of danger. I like the slow, like molasses romance hints.
