Raven Stratagem (Machineries of Empire)

Now that it's over, I love how the author duped even the reader. I was so confused for part of the book, thinking I was reading the story of one character, then it turns out that it's from the point of view of another, and then another switch!

3.5 stars rounded up to 4. I liked the extra point of view characters, and especially enjoyed the fleshed out universe. But I felt like things were a little drawn out in the middle third of the book. Still a good read and I'm looking forward to book 3 when it's released.
