Creo que el libro es bueno, te entretiene y te atrapa muy rápido. A lo largo de la historia van expandiendo el mundo en que sucede la historia, junto con mas personajes que van descubriendo y salvando. La protagonista Mare, no siento que tenga desarrollo, sigue siendo la misma niña insolente y egoísta, sin embargo si tiene algunos ligeros cambios de personalidad, y entiendo que la autora la quiera hacer ver como que no es perfecta, llega a ser muy insensible, y grosera con todos. Los personajes que la rodean como Cal, Kilorn, Shade y Farley tienen un mejor desarrollo que ella, e incluso en un punto solo estaba leyendo la historia por ellos. En general la trama esta muy bien, es intrigante y asombroso ver como puede hacer una diferencia buscando y ayudando a los suyos, pero eso no la hace mejor que otros, ella lo cree así, cree que es superior, que es mejor que todos, y tal vez si lo sea, pero es muy grosera con la gente que la esta ayudando, a veces quería que alguien llegara y la abofeteara por lo que estaba diciendo, que alguien le tuviera un alto o la dejaran sola. Mare hace que la lectura sea pesada de leer, no es una buena narradora

The first book was a total struggle but I decided to give this a go. I lasted one chapter.

UPDATE I decided to keep going while I was waiting on other books. Meh. 2.5 stars. Kinda pulling for Maven, really

damn this book started out mildly boring and ended also mildly boring and i didn't like mare for most of the book. but the end 1/3 somewhat redeemed it with the action scenes at the jail etc.
