      This first novel (first published, first in a trilogy) is thoroughly enjoyable. It is packed full of humourous exchanges and situations without compromising the suspense and action. The first half of the book sets up characters and beliefs before Dalton ramps up the action and challenges the characters bringing together unlikely alliances and turning the characters' worlds on their heads.As we went through this book I had multiple ideas of where it was going to end and where the next books would be going. Each of them was shattered in turn so, I'm looking forward to books two and three - if only to see how on earth Dalton can top the near destruction of reality.The only small thing which leads me to think it should be slightly less than I've given it is the number of typos in there. Staggering numbers of spelling mistakes and missing spaces kept leaping off the page. But that is a personal thing.
