Fell way below my expectations.
I had high hopes for this book via the synopsis, but was enormously let down. The writing style was rambling and disconnected. Character development was poor due to the shear number of characters.
I felt okay with the first few chapters, but then the author took too many paths concerning numerous characters and never really pulled the paths together to form a coherent story. The two families never interacted as described in the books' blurb and that was a huge disappointment. I was expecting a full blown feud and received a mild altercation instead. Most disappointing.
Another fault was to introduce the protagonist nearly half way into the book. I feel this character could have been better explored and utilised.
