Review: It took a third of the book before I took interest in the story and thought it was going somewhere good. But as the plot came together, I found myself caring less and less. To give any details would be to spoil the plot for those who might enjoy it, but the subject matter just wasn't engaging to me - a combination of distasteful, overblown and unbelievable which turned me off the more it was developed. The story wasn't particularly gripping, either. Scenes of death and betrayal didn't stir me, as though the story were trying to cash in on emotions that it hadn't earned. By the end of the book, I found myself shaking my head more and more at how ridiculous and cliché-packed it became, especially the final climax. Thrilling it was not; I could have put the book down and never worried about the fate of these characters, but I finished it through a feeling of "I made it this far, might as well finish." The closing chapters left me rolling my eyes and wishing I had just given up. Could be that I'm just not the right audience for this, but well, I'm glad it was a very cheap Kindle purchase.
