3.5 / 5

"Is this a kissing book?"
I was not prepared for the first half of this book being mostly about Devi's (struggle with her) feelings. So I was a bit disappointed that there wasn't more ass-kicking in the beginning.

Still, I like the author's style, her voice (even if I can't always relate to Devi's POV) and her characters (mostly). (Extra points for Hyrek's joke! :) ).
I also liked how the story got resolved in the end, plus the glimpse we got of King Stephen (I'm not worthy!)

If there is going to be a Blackbird spin-off (wishful thinking? rumours?), I'll surely give it a go (though I am currently not finished with Eli nor the Heartstrikers, yet).
