The Element of Fire by Martha WellsMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Martha Wells debut novel, the first in the Ile-Rein series.
I found it a bit slow to get started but once I felt comfortable in the world and the pace picked up I enjoyed it tremendously.
Lots of court intrigue, a young King who has no idea what he's doing, his mother the real brains behind the throne. When the country is attaced by Fairy, the fact that the king's half sister, a half fey herself, shows up and muddles the picture of just who is up to what, and who to trust.
