Hmm, not bad.
Ok, I expected a lot more from this book after I read the blurb and saw the cover. But I guess people were right in their reviews, it's not the best PNR out there.

This book has likeable characters, but I think it moves a bit too fast. Jade Crow, the protagonist has been on the run for 20 or 30 years from a man, sorcerer, who wants to eat her heart and gain all of her powers and knowledge.
