This is number 3?!? Good grief. I picked this up because the blurb on the cover said something about it being a sequel to Howl, which I ADORED, but seriously, it's a trilogy? Sigh...I should really research these things before reading them.

I can't say how much I admire Jones' way of creating such an amazing world. I want to live in her books, and I can't say that of many stories I read. That being said, I didn't like this as much as Howl. Mostly because I found the characters to be more irritating.
