The more I think about this book, the less I like it.  There was so much focus in the story around obtaining and creating forgeries of the icons to gain entry to the event.  But then one person paid off a guard, one walked in through the front door as a plus one, and one literally just climbed over the wall to get in.  The heist wasn't heisting.  And then the lead vamp guy was literally adopted family and just let them go anyway, so the double cross was meaningless.  
I did like the characters well enough i guess, but the plot was a whole mess.

Slow and just not interesting. I had high hopes for this since the last two I read from the author were great.

Really great web of plot that kept me guessing. A little sporadic at times but I really liked it.

I enjoyed this book and narration.
It has an interesting fantasy setting with found family and a heist.
I liked the story and character development.
