Shadow Scale by Rachel Hartman

5.0

---

THIS is how you write a diverse cast. Characters from all walks of life, who's experience has made them into unique beings, joined together to make one story. I loved or hated every single character in these books, which I mean as a compliment, since is is said the opposite of love is not hate, but indifference. I pity anyone who is indifferent about this series. Sadly, the only thing that disappointed me about this book was how abruptly it ended. It felt like Hartman was trying to tie up 6 different plot points in less than 50 pages.Over-all though, this is definitely one of my top 5 favorite series, and no doubt my favorite epic fantasy.
