Well done. I read the first in the series a few years back. I guess this was a prequel/sequel. while i sometimes felt lost with multitude of characters, it was so well written that I could hardly put it done.

More descriptive and narrative than the previous books in the series. Doesn't change the wonderful story and the beauty of the universe. Good read. Kinda does require reading the previous in the series.
