I tried savoring this book and then binged the last half and then the entire next book in the series. Thats how good it was. The world was so interesting. Honestly I could read a textbook on the history of The Stillness and be entertained. But on top of that all of the characters were intriguing as well. And all along you are fed little nuggets of information that make you desperate to see how they all connect in the end.
