This book is absolutely gripping. I've read works by this author before, all of which I enjoy, and I suspect this one will be no different. You are immediately thrown into Winter's world, and despite the grandness of it all, Winter is relatable. He feels like a real person with real hopes and real fears and real thoughts. The cover is beautiful as well. I can tell that this is going to be one wild ride, and I am so excited for it.
