Do yourself a favor, don't read this trash. And I do NOT refer to the book's subject matter. It's simply that this is one of the worst-written books I ever came across. The plot and subject matter could have been made interesting. Other sister-books in the series (Hero, Cally's War) are well written and enjoyable to read. This literary abortion is absolutely awful, could have been the literary creation of an IQ-challenged ten-year old.
