Review: Witchmark

Witchmark by C.L. Polk
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

It was a very good read, a real page-turner I finished in two days. I liked the setting, the world-building (without data-damps for once). I really enjoyed the author's attention to details (even though some of the details annoyed re-surfacing 40 pages later, when I forgot all about them).

As much as I enjoyed the book, minus one star for a way too blatant and straight-forward analogies, the identity of Tristan revealed too soon and boring (why couldn't he be a spy, why.... ok, no spoilers), and the mystery that was obvious to the reader to the smallest detail at 80% of the book, while the characters were still quite mystified.
