This book was not what I was expecting. It has some major elements that I love. But the only thing that I have a problem with which is why I gave it 4 stars is that it is a little gruesomely at times but it is still a very good book and will be picking up the second book when it comes out. But the cover and summery of the book is all that you need to go on to be interested in it but you also have got to have a strong stomach a some points. Its books like these that I do like reading because they really transport you to a whole new world were you don't know where it is your going with the story. But it's just that good of a book. I have never actually heard of Matt Wallace before this book but he did a great job writing this book. He really knows what he is talking about.
