review 1: I have definite mixed emotions about this and I'm not quite sure how to properly convey them! Okay. So the writing in this story was really good, way better than I'd been expecting. The author really creates emotion with his words and Merq's POV was so compelling. The storyline had quite a few twists that I'm sure would've been more astonishing to me if I fully understood it, but I was too busy differentiating all the different sides in my mind. For some silly reason, I kept getting the Revolution mixed up with the Opposition, I think because it didn't make sense to me at first why someone in a seat of such power could be the head of a revolution. I would've much rather'd this story be longer and go into all the details behind WHAT the two sides are about, rather than givi... moreng a brief skim over them. I would've loved it if it went into a lot more detail about a lot of things, but I have to hand it to the author - despite being such a short space, McAuley managed to pull it off. Ugh, I just contradicted myself... I'll have to really think about this book and I'll definitely be picking up the next one, mainly because of that dang cliffhanger!
review 2: This book grabs you and sucks you in right from the first page. Merq and Armise are enemy soldiers in a dark and brutal world and this is reflected in their relationship. They do terrible things to each other but they take it in their stride. The story is full of double-crossing, triple-crossing and quadruple-crossing but rather than being confusing this just makes the book exciting and filled with twists and turns. When I reached the end I was captivated and I need the next book right now! less
