I've always said, "War is never told by those who have been conquered but by those who do the conquering." The first few chapters pulled you in and immersed you into the minds of the characters, showing you that beauty isn't everything and war isn't as it seems. That betrayal and downfall are imminent. There's forbiding and foreshadowing, longing between happiness and duty. I cried, not only for those born in power but those who were not. It was vital to capture the view points of all status, the Author nailed it and kept the reader captivated.
