Probably the most well rounded book that I have read in the recent past. As soon as I started to read I was mind boggled by the amount of detail, world building, character building, and deepening of plot that followed. I loved the fact that the main characters story completed in that one book. It was satisfyingly long and very engaging. I don't think I was bored for even a moment. This is a must read if you enjoy a gripping romance/adventure. Definitely is not cheesy.
