Quote of the Day

“I have heard lies all my life; they are part of survival in the High Court. Grace—and the illusion of beauty—does not easily accommodate truth; truth is blunt, and often brutal; it is a face that, once exposed, is unavoidable. When we speak a plain truth, we take a risk, always, because the truth lingers in the memory of both the speaker and the listener.

“We save our truths,” she added softly. “As if they are valuable only when hidden. We hide our affection; we hide simple things. Love. The loyalty that comes not from duty but from other complicated desires.”

Finished this novel this afternoon and it was amazing! Michelle West really is awesome! =)

It also features the best flashback sequence since Robert Jordan sent Rand al'Thor into Rhuidean.
