The mystery and world was compelling. I was happy to have correctly guessed the villian about half way through the book, but it was a wild ride to the end. I do feel like a few things near the end of the book were a bit rushed. Like the final few chapters had a lot of ground to cover and make up, but over all I liked the book.
