Not a LOT of space, per se, it's just how. There is stuff going on but I still don't know if the plot is going to make sense in the end and be believable, but then, this is not unusual for the genre so it's not particularly a drawback for the book. It's more of a bonus if it actually works out. The characters are each supposed to be very smart (highest test scores ever!) The girl was upper-class and got military schooling, while the boy was tortured and escaped out on the street, so their smarts are supposed to complement each other. They mostly do

Yeah, after reading half of the 2nd book I can exactly narrow down the problem to a badly handled romantic subplot. Its badness is highlighted by the fact that the rest of the story is decent enough and in the second book the girl is pretty interesting otherwise! (The boy, not so much, but it's directly related to this badly handled romantic plotline.) I don't not recommend the books so far, but caveat lector.
