Soulsmith (Cradle, #2)

2.5 stars rounded down for being something I felt I just needed to plow through to get past rather than something I was enjoying.
I know the first 2 books are supposed to be inferior to the rest, but that doesn't exactly leave me raring to continue. There's no over-arching plot to latch onto yet, no characters to care about, no magic or action that's the least bit interesting...yikes.
This book feels like a side quest so Lindon can power up and meet his guru mentor. That's it. The worldbuilding with the factions and magic felt so weak, even though we got endless amounts of it. These action scenes have to be some of the least compelling I can ever remember reading, with unintelligible random magic stuff happening that is just so poorly set up and described.
This series needs to get better fast for me to care.
