3.0

I have a feeling this book suffered from being a midway point in the series: it's necessary to get the characters where they need to be for the rest of the series (physically and emotionally), but it wasn't particularly interesting in its own right. Mostly political intrigue that hasn't gone anywhere yet, but I do expect it to lead somewhere entertaining eventually at least.
