It being a Luna book I was worried it would be too much a romance and not enough a story, but it's an excellent fantasy with the romance coming lightly at the end. The poison taster is a interesting twist, and the magic simple and effective. Yelena's a great characters, strong of mind, and overcoming her horrors and becoming strong of skill, spymasters, magic chocolate, and a kind of opressive, stalinesque, 'kingdom' but not over done. good, but for a bit of a sequel cop-out ending. an 8. perhaps more if the sequel lives up to it.
