Tarquin, the supercilious Noble boy who attends the magical boarding school "Vocans" along with Fletcher, is presented so well with his evil persona that I felt a strange level of resentment towards him, considering the fact he is a fictional character; Matharu's writing style so easily manipulates the reader in to feeling whatever emotion he is trying to spark.
Although the booki book doesn't break new ground in the teen fantasy genre, the monstrous cliffhanger ending has undeniably left me counting down the days until book two is released.
If this book appeals then you might also enjoy [[The Sin Eater's Daughter by Melinda Salisbury]] or [[Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard]].
