I like Alyxandra Harvey, and she does write wonderful characters, so I'm glad to hear you enjoyed them in this book, but I'm wondering if I should give this series a bit more time to develop before I commit to reading it.

Despite the few flaws which distracted you a bit, you did seem to overall enjoy it. I'm guess that it's because it's the first book and the author is still laying down the groundwork for the series. I think I'll wait for book 2 to come out before starting this series.
