I really enjoyed this book. Like really enjoyed it. It was fast, the characters were vivid and had greeat arcs, and the villains were delightfully terrifying. I particularly enjoyed it because we got to go to a different part of the world and throw Briar and Rosethorn into a completely new culture. And I loved Evvy. I thought the parallels between Evvy's story and Briar's past worked really well, and on the whole this book was much more cohesive than Magic Steps--Briar teaching Evvy was integral to the plot of the gang wars. Now I'm looking forward to getting to Will of the Empress and Melting Stones and Battle Magic again, because I really like Briar's story. But I'm also looking forward to Daja's and Tris's adventures, which I haven't read in years so it will be really interesting.

I really quite enjoyed this book. I like Briar and Rosethorn, and now Evvy too.
It's just too bad I don't get to see more of them in the next book, but still. Daja kicks butt.

Briar and Rosethorn are traveling and Briar spots a street kid in a marketplace who seems to have magic with stones. Because he is the first to spot the magic, he must teach Evvy the basics or find her a teacher. One of the best in the Circle of Magic universe books. I really enjoyed the character of Evvy.
