It was an action filled book, full of emotional and moral struggles. I was never bored. I felt something lacking in the cohesiveness or the structure, because sometimes it felf a little bit all over the place. Also, this could have been a duology and it would have been perfect as such, but it was as if at the last moment the author had decided to change her mind, or if she had made a three book deal and had to make it a trilogy even though the story wanted to be a duology. The ending therefore felt cheap to me. Of course, I don't know if this was really the case with the author and the publisher, but this was just my impression from reading the book. However, I did enjoy the story quite a lot despite the ending and I will definitely continue on with the series.
