Choosing Sides
Review from Land of Gods →
Although I found the constantly changing political relationships confusing, they were not critical to the core story of a young artist/dreamer thrust by tradition into the role of a warrior whose actions range from cowardice to bravery and whose motivations seem to waver like flickering candlelight.

the only thing i hated about this book was getting to the end of it. please please please make more sequels! OH! AND PANCAKES! PANCAKES!
