I am trying another Maas series. I wasn't expecting this one to be so much of a murder mystery. I love the unconventional sleuths considering it's set in a fantastical world. Maas seems to have a knack for creating such rich worlds and the characters are well-fleshed out. I, of course, adore Bryce and I happen to be a big fan of Ruhn. I know I'm supposed to love Hunt and I like him but he's not my main interest in this. I enjoyed the premise of this, especially since it takes such a sharp turn to the left so early on. I would love to be able to use this as an example of a trigger in my teaching but it's probably not one I should put on the curriculum. There were moments that caught me by surprise, which I admit, probably shouldn't have, but I love just relaxing into a story and not ALWAYS trying to figure out the twist. I am looking forward to the next in this series.
