A very intense story well told

This is a very intense story that is well told and well performed. It hits the ground running and doesn't stop. Strong character development and intriguing plot. I thought I knew where it was heading, but I was wrong - pleasantly surprised. Note that it deals with grown-up themes and material, so definitely aimed at more mature readers. The narrator is perfect for the story and does a fantastic job. The story is complete and leads up nicely to the next book.
