Well, this is definately fantasy unlike I've read before. It was a strange and sometimes sick book. (The perversity that is Briarwood just made my blood boil, I can't help it. It made my stomach lurch several times.) I do admit however that I am intrigued and would like to read the second and third part in the trilogy (Heir to the Shadows and Queen of the Darkness) to see how Jeanelle fares, how she heals and how she is/becomes 'Witch'.
However there are some things that I didn't like about the book. I'm always a bit weary when a book starts with a list of things you need to know before you start reading. (Like the list of jewels and the explanation of the hierarchy.) I always feel that a good writer doesn't need to list these things up front, but should be able to explain them to a reader sufficiently along the way.
Thanks for handing the book to me Xana. I tagged Ossiefry in the wislist-tag-game with this book, so it'll be on its way to her in no time!
