This was so so good, I literally could not put it down. It's a short, very fast read, but I never felt like it left too many things unanswered, yet I would easily read 200 more pages of this novel. The premise was such an incredible idea, I loved the writing style, and the plot and action moved fast, yet the novel still had an incredible amount of substance and things to say. Ring Shout made me gasp, cry, cheer, laugh, and scream, all in less than 200 pages. I really cannot recommend this enough, it not only got me out of a huge reading slump, but it is without a doubt the best fantasy novel I've ever read.
