Hated it.
Thoroughly enjoyed the story. It is great to find a good story without bad language and sex. The story was fast paced and kept me on the edge of my seat. I loved the vivid descriptions throughout the book. The author did a great job of describing the main character and his life. Can’t wait to read the rest of the trilogy.
