I feel like this book is the actual start of the series and the ones before it were all just prequels. Also, we all collectively hate the covers of these books right? Her hair is wrong and she doesn't even use a bow and arrow in this book, does she? I can see why this is the book that turns people off to the series as a whole. I really just did not care about Aedion and Chaol's plot, let alone Dorian and Sorscha. I mean we all knew that was going to end up in tragedy. I really liked Manon's story, though it's a lot to just throw in a brand new character to focus a third of the book on when you are halfway through a series. I was bored for a lot of this book, but the ending tied everything together and Rowan is a dreamboat. Beware of the tattooed fae males in a SJM series... As I'm writing this review, I'm already about 100 pages into Queen of Shadows.
