This book was a masterpiece. It is very evident by the writing quality and plot integrity that the writer is a master of her craft. The characters are so well-written, none of them felt two-dimensional, all of them were so crucial to the story.

There are so many important and thought-provoking themes throughout the book: the moral dilemmas of staying true to your values or your kin, the ethics being challenged in times of war, the history being bound to repeat itself, the importance of stopping the cycle of revenge and the fact that the choice is always between an evil and a lesser evil.
