This was a fairly quick, fun read.
The only thing that really prevented my liking this book more, was that I personally don't enjoy books where from the beginning, as a reader, you know a characters revenge is aimed at the wrong person and then the character keeps on thinking how, despite all the evidence, they still have to hate the 'enemy'. I definitely enjoyed Tristan's POV more because of this.
It's nothing too ground-breaking, but for a debut novel and for those who enjoy standalones that have humour, political intrigue and really awesome side characters this is a fun read.
