Oh, this book sounds interesting (and how should I be able to resist a Pegasus?). =)

Just a question: What's happening in the book? Is there adventure? Action? Are they on a quest? :)

I so understand you with the cliffhanger thing! I hate, hate, hate it so much when books do that! *glares at Pittacus Lore*

Oh saphira! It is wonderful. Not a huge amount of action (yet. I suspect book two will have a lot). There was more world building or setting the stage as it were. It's mostly about the developing friendship between Slyvi and Ebon and both their people's reactions to that friendship. And also what Sylvi discovers about the Pegasii (and her own people). The final few chapters were stressful only because I was beginning to realise that there would be no resolution. Sigh.

I have got a few ideas to incorporate into my Wing!Shep fic now though :)
