Oh my gosh!!! What a waste of time it was to read this book. Although the synopsis sounded interesting and the reviews I read were overall very good, I didn't liked this book. The plot & characters are completely illogical and there's no background to the story at all, so that I thought the author just started writing without first thinking about the plot too much. Consequently, the book world was one-dimensional at best and I felt somehow cheated - at least of time - after reading this book.
