I liked the characters, but I wanted more insight into them. I wanted a few more telling moments, scenes that opened the story up and allowed the reader to really dive into what was going on underneath it all. It seemed, at times, as though Kay was only skimming the surface. There were moments when the book was a pure pleasure to read.And yet, I really felt that I wanted a bit more depth to it all. The characters are individual and relatable. The musical theme carries through very well. The world is nicely drawn I found it easy to slip into and become involved with. Initially, I found it lacking in comparison to Lord of Emperors, my favourite work by Kay however, once I was able to put aside my biases, I found that I enjoyed it on its own merits. I'm still a little unsure of how I felt about this book.
