The girl is intelligent and she uses her intellect as her weapon. I'd classify this series as an adventure, but Phedre doesn't 'fight'. In fact when she's in physical trouble someone has to go save her and she can't really help herself, but that's not to say that she's a wilting heroine. She earns her own respect by acting on her own and overcomes situations by using her brain. quite the odd heroine by the norm's standards.
The author's pretty good with words and has done a bit of research (winning combination). Many things in the novel have a real world reference.
It's adventurous, erotic and suspenseful, and I'd say one of those stories you'd call epic. It's around 900 pages, but you'll get through it and be grateful you went through the trek.
