5.0

It's an incredible read and fast-paced without feeling like it's rushing. I became emotionnally invested in all of the characters in one way or another, even the protagonist Kellen, who is fairly unlikeable through most of the book (for good reason, you'll see). I wish I had Ferius' confidence.
