What did you think of this Kushiel book? I don't think it was as intense as some of the other ones, but certainly a good read.

actually i was very pleased with it. mostly because i was VERY disappointed in kushiel's scion. it wasn't horrible, but it wasn't...interesting either. i felt like this book showed the author catching her stride again and maybe the last one was just a step she had to get through in order to write the good stuff.
imriel still doesn't make as good of a hero as phedre, but he's not a bad one either.
