I really enjoyed this story. I loved the subtle comedy and the interesting way the magic was woven into the tale without completely taking over. The little twists were nice as well. I think some parts were a bit drawn out and there could have been more frightening sequences, but it was a good read none the less. I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
