Franklin Horton is probably my favorite author. His books are usually very well written and interesting.
I am a huge fan of the Borrowed World series and this book was enjoyable. The story is a little different but not out in left field. I like the new characters and the losses experienced by the group. I thought there was a lot of unnecessary detail at the beginning but it gets easier to read as the story goes on.
Based on the epilogue, it sounds like the next book is going to be good. I am already looking forward to it.
