Read for mrissa's book-club discussion. My comment, abridged:

I clearly felt the influence of children's (vs. YA) literature in the heavy-handed characterization, the simple prose, and the arc length. Cabbarus seemed like a flat villain, and I never became much enamored of Theo

Definitely keep reading. The first book, so far as I'm concerned, primarily serves as set-up for the second.
