The point of view of the novel is third person. The novel is told through the eyes of the main character, Kin Arad. The author remains with Kin Arad throughout the novel, never moving from her point of view even when the narration moves from Kin's viewpoint. This causes some confusion for the reader as the action often takes place outside of the narration, leaving the reader confused and catching up in a way that sometimes interrupts the flow of the plot.
