Did not like this one as much as La Belle Sauvage. I gave it four stars because I am SUPER here for the expanded development about human-daemon relationships and the philosophical topics, which was enough to outweigh the things I didn't like about the book (which are mainly the Malcolm thing and soldier scene, already mentioned by many other reviews here). 

I'll save full judgment on it until the next book, which I assume will be a continuation.
