A fantasy novel about trust, honor, and the quest for peace. The title gave me expectations of a serious, somber novel, but "Sedition" is humorous, exciting, and engaging. I enjoyed Trenna's brash confidence, the fast-paced plot, and strong character and romantic development.
This is probably one of the best fantasy books I've read in a long time. Once I got past the first few pages and had the characters figured out it was an exciting page turner. I loved it and was disappointed when it ended. I waited excitedly for its sequel!
All right, so I need to be an advocate for my own work, right?
This is an early work and I happen to know the newer stuff is better in terms of style and craft, but the characters are fun and the plot is epic.

I'm a little out of my comfort zone with the romance element of fantasy romance, but Sedition is a story so skilfully told that I even enjoyed the more 'girlie' scenes.
I did find the opening pages a little slow and disjointed, but it's more than worth sticking with this story. It gets better by the page and builds to an amazing and terrifically written final showdown, with the added bonus of a wonderful twist at the end.

I thought this was a nicely paced fantasy book. I believe the characters are great in this book, they have wonderful dynamic that makes the book go smoothly.
