The Well of Ascension

Had started this last year but had given up 70% of my way in. Although the story was intriguing, the writing felt too regimented, colouring in numbers. Had made my way through the first book with hopes of continuing here but alas

Then at the start of this year started with its audiobook and surprise surprise, it is a much better experience now! Turns out when you're looking for beautiful prose when the writer has his full focus on the plot and characters, reading it feels tedious, at least for me. In the audio, there's no need to highlight a sentence so the story flows much better and GraphicAudio does a good job of bringing the book to life.

Hopefully this continues and I “read” more sequels of this story.
