4.0

An enjoyable read from outside my usual genre. The characters were enjoyable and realistic. My main reason for giving this a 4 is to do with a particular part of Solomon's writing style. There were numerous times where it appears as though a catastrophic and/or big event is happening as a chapter closes, and instead of giving any information about it, faer decides to start the next chapter without a mention of the previous event. This is not inherently bad but is something I personally did not like within the context of this novel.

Overall, I would recommend this book to others and will most likely be picking up Solomon's other books.
