The Fool's Embrace

I am in awe with this series . the first 2 books are about getting to know the characters .. Some intense action but mostly talking .. The 3rd book is confusing .. a little out there but still a good read .. the 4th book is so far the best ... These book are many pages that I did not expect which make for a good book .. over 600 pages each book . The only thing that puts me off is that the author must have forgotten what he wrote in the past 3 books .. Katarina had her baby before Oden went to prison ... He was in prison for at least 9 months but while Nova and Oden were taking on the boat to freedom Nova had mentioned that his son was only 3 months ... also Nova married Katarina when he was 23 in the 1st book but in the 4th book he claimed that he was 23 ... and how does Virgin know Odens' biological father when he wasn't in the picture until after Miko died .... maybe I have to reread the first 4 books again to understand ... but overall this is a good series !
