; PERSONAL OPINION

The book begins with the character, Giselle, fleeing from a group of people inthe world Wuff. At the end is captured, but his father suddenly appears, yolda Abasi, and saves her. He takes her far away and tells him to never be separated again and purchased a nice place for both, that place is called Sahon.
There his father tells him he needs a teacher, introduces him to one, Hesperis, he is a ghost and is one of the wisest tein is also to become history as abanza someone very important to Giselle. will be giving information to Giselle sparingly and only when it suits him.

yolda Abasi, Giselle's father soon disappears, but its presence planned throughout the book and we will discover the dark facets of his personality, told by other people who knew him long DSDE.
At a party sees the Cardinals and it turns out that one of them is the mother of Giselle, Saldrach. When you meet Naie have to know what they are, since both would be at risk. His mother tells him everything that his father did yal principle does not believe it, but it goes over the history of discovering who is right.

At a party organized by Giselle, Lothar aparace that will be someone very special to her and end of all discover who he is.
scenarios in which the plot unfolds ranging from paradise (the worlds of Scope) to hell (the Rim, and planets Wuff punished), not average. A bit radical, but good. Ambiguity helps give the Cardinal, so they are not bad very bad history. See for what it is about to happen to Giselle in Wuff the beginning of the book, and how people live in Wells. That in the worlds of scope does not happen.

Although the book puts the final word FIN, is open because there are still things to develop as it does that Hesperis, the Giselle future being what it is going to be and the mother and father ended.
I have not seen any beyond the second side pate, but it is good that there is, to remove all doubts readers.

I must say this is the first book I read of this issue and I liked a lot.
