I am a true SJM fan with all my heart and soul, but I truly thought I would hate this book/world/series. 

I loathe modern themes/technology in my fantasy books but I was throughly surprised when I found myself enjoying this book. 

While I don't think it's her best work I can feel it building up to be a truly great series and I can't wait to read more. 

In all honesty I don't think the first book of any of her series are "the best in the series" but I still absolutely adore them regardless. So with that knowledge in the back of my mind I can't wait to continue to CC2 because I know it will get even better.
