Query: A great first novel priming the reader for the sequels.

This book is fairly fast moving with enough twists and turns to make it engrossing. You can put it down but your mind stays with it, wondering what's coming next. I found it a little confusing about some of the names of the players and places. A family tree and a more detailed map would have cleared this up. There were hints of adventures to come that could involve the depths of the oceans and the sky above. A good touch of romance without the raunchy details that are sometimes added for "flavor". You had better keep your eyes on this young man as he shows great promise of things to come. I won't say "Look out Isaac Asimov" but I think he would have enjoyed this story. Thanks Anselm.
