The Summer Queen by Joan D. Vinge
5.0

Great! I wish I had read this and the first book (The Snow Queen) back to back instead of waiting a couple of years. It was a little difficult to get back into, but once I did it was great. Vinge has a masterful way of writing real, emotional characters who also have interesting adventures. Of course, so much plot and depth makes for a thick book, but it is worth it. A weird note, but I really loved the way the second to last (or third to last) chapter was just a goodbye among different characters. It was very sweet and good way to start wrapping things up.
