I won't be rating this book. If I were to describe it in 1 word it would be challenging. This is my 3rd or 4th try reading it, and it took me about 4 months to actually read it this time. I'm glad I persevered through it and did it. I hope Janny Wurts gets recognized for her amazing work as a writer because I recognize how good this book is without even managing to grasp it to its fullest. I look forward to coming back to this series and trying it again.

(maybe I'll come back to this and actually try to write some sort of a review since I really did appreciate the reading experience this book gave me.)
