It's rare to find disability rep in fantasy, let alone good rep like this book has, so I wanted to like this more. The truth is, this book would have been more compelling if told only from Kissen and Elo's POV. The Inara/Skedi scenes are really just there to set up one pivotal scene and could otherwise have been told from a different POV. Because of this, I found it harder than it should have been to really sink into the book, and it doesn't help that the book is a short one. I never really feel like I get enough of Kissen and Elo's character progression. The end sequence (the last, day 25 pages) are perfectly paced and tense and leave me wondering what will happen next. Yes, this book ends on a bit of a cliffhanger in that they've accomplished their initial goal (sort of) but doing so has opened a whole new can of worms. There's potential here but not as much depth as I wanted. I guess we'll see where this series goes next.
