Loved this book from beginning to end. Rini Soltari is an amazing main character. The ordeals he has to overcome, the challenges he seems to be constantly facing, and wanting to be able to handle everything on his own even when help is offered. The development of the characters is always evolving and changing, and you feel like you are getting to know the characters as you would in real life, constantly evolving. The landscape is rich in detail and draws you in, making you feel as if you are really there with the characters.
