Superb! Writing far exceeded my expectations. I could see every scene in my head. Very cool character and place names. Well thought out world. Shade is a very fun anti-hero to read. Coolest vision of Dark Elves since R. A. Think I'll go for the whole book once I finish The Way of Kings. I checked out the super slick website and can't wait to read some of the other story lines--specifically Elf Wars. The black forests of Jui-Sae sound really cool. I would definately recommend this product!
