I have been looking for a new series for a long time now and I thought this book might be the beginning of a good series and the end of a quest for me. I am fussy about my fiction...I like details and well developed characters who have realistic relationships and I like stories with logical reasons behind characters motivations for doing the things they do. This book is for readers who don't care so much about the details of the setting or the logic behind the events that unfold. People who like a quick paced mystery where the protagonist's every effort is rewarded with another step closer to the objective will enjoy this story. For me it was all too unlikely and unrealistic. The writing wasn't horrible, neither was it very good. The dialogue wasn't very good, neither was it horrible. I didn't dislike it enough to give up on it but I can't recommend it to anyone either. I do know that I am still looking for a series that fits my tastes. I recently listened to the first three audio books in the Sally Lockhart series by Philip Pullman and I thought they were wonderful. I also loved the Julian Kestrel series by Kate Ross and the Captain Lacey series by Ashley Gardner. If you are a fan of those series or you're willing to recommend something similar in a series that you enjoyed please leave me a comment and let me know what you recommend, thanks so much.
