"I only knew what I felt, as certain as the earth beneath my feet."

I love Jennifer Saint's simple yet effective writing style. This was an enjoyable (but slow) story, though it fell a bit flat during the last few chapters. The ending seemed a bit rushed/unfinished to me - there are still lingering questions I have. 

Overall, though, I liked the variety of characters and settings, and thought this was a decent read (if not a bit boring at times). I appreciate that the author focused on Atalanta's superior physical strength as opposed to smarts or magic; there aren't enough stories about women written from that angle.
