4.0

Bit of a slow start to me, but then the plot takes off and never stops. Great introduction book to the series. After reading, it's hard to believe this is the tamest, lightest book of the series. The 1st book could be considered Sci-Fi Hunger Games but the overall series is closer to Star Wars level of epic.
