What a book. First off this was incredibly short. Which also means that the speed at which the story progressed was quick as hell. The way the magic system is explained is great I love the endless possibilities this give.
I also really love the characters. Tho I am not the biggest fan of Hughs self-doubting and general pathetic like behaviour and thoughts the ending gives me a hopeful outlook on the future books. I loved Talia, although I might be a little biased since she is eerily like me. And of course, Godrick and Sabae were also really cool. All the characters are diverse and have distinct features and traits. I loved seeing all of then evolved throughout the book.
All in all, I really like it and was metaphysically on the edge of my seat at all times. I was also screaming at it sometimes but regardless.
It was over too soon!
This sounded like an interesting read. It was much more than that. Beautifully crafted world building combined with good storytelling makes this a must-read book. I can't wait for the next one.
There were predictable elements but I enjoyed them a lot because they were handled very cleverly. My only complaint is the editing. And the ending felt slightly abrupt.
