Hmmmm......
Overall a solid fantasy filled with fascinating characters and colorful storytelling, (and an incredible strong start with the most foreboding tone that sets off the rest of the book), this had too much of a 'telling and not showing' aspect to it. And the second aspect I didn't really like: this one really sets up its grandiose twists and promises all for the sequel. All the build up, albeit beautifully and well written, but still too little too late for me.
Xiala was a favorite, though.
If you're a fantasy newbie and looking for something equally fun and riveting without that daunting and complicated chaos of starting something thicc and different, this is the perfect pick for you,
3.5 STARS
