5.0

I could not put this book down - constantly telling myself the little lie we all tell ourselves: "just one more chapter".  

The characters were great and the world building was neat with a lightly reflective view of current society and their attitudes towards refugees.  

I loved seeing Miraya grow and establish a life on her own terms (well mostly, considering the antagonist and their scheming).

The slow romance between her and Deniel was sooooo cute.  Bit bummed for Lorwyn and Entero though.

I wonder what Thiano's end goal is - a double agent?  A turncoat?  Or maybe just like to have fingers in pies.

Miraya's tea dragon familiar only came in right at the end of the book, but I love them already.
