Ratings and reviews

After everything I had suspicions but nothing of what I expected. But totally now it all makes sense

Another very good book from the series. Easy to read, it has few twists and it managed to grip my interest till the end.

Well, to read hundreds of pages and not have a clue what the story is supposed to lead you to is ridiculous. Not gripping at all just boring. Good characters but who wants to read a characters everyday life? No real development at all at least let the reader know what is being covered up by the old generation in the book.
