I enjoyed these immensely. The first two books were my favorite, but the whole series was amazing. Very different from my usual choices, it turned out to be the perfect comfort read, leaving me with all kinds of warm and fuzzy feelings. Not to say there was no drama - the morgenau are all drama queens (well, except for Cedifor, who was super cool) - but it was mostly harmless, and the HEA was never in question.
