I had such a hard time reading this book. It's story it's probably good, however, because of the way it was written (I am aware of the “age” of this book) but I had to depend on an audio version and even so, it was a struggle.
Am I the only one that sees some “Memoirs of a Geisha” in certain parts of this book? But with magic added to it? It's a very well put book and I cannot wait to read the next one :)
