** spoiler alert **
What I liked about Lament: the writing was lyrical, the characters were real, the heroine wasn't a spineless dishrag, and the love interest was an assassin. (Okay, so I have a thing for assassins.) The faeries were portrayed as feral and dangerous, which is how they're supposed to be, in my humble opinion. And the ending. The ending killed me, in a good way. The author certainly didn't take the easy way out, forcing a sappy, Happily Ever After onto the characters when logic clearly dictated otherwise. The ending is real and bittersweet, and what I respect most about this author's work. I', very much looking forward to the sequel, Ballad, when it comes out.
