This book is filled with conspiracy. The characters all have secrets and alliances are rare. Each chapter brings new information about the world that is explored, the relationship between the characters, and the scheming yet it feels like the story drags. I would not recommend this book to people who are used to read fantastic stories with strong world building. However, I understand why it could be appealing to middle grade or YA readers.
