Witch King

An enjoyable read in a novel high fantasy setting, but not a very satisfying ending. I did enjoy the parallel stories, depicting events in two different timelines with many of the same characters, one telling the story of how they met, which the other tells of their adventures in the present. There were queer relationships throughout the book, but they were present and unremarkable, which was both nice and unusual. It was also fascinating that while the main character jumped into several bodies through the story, several of them female, the main character maintains a male perspective without really commenting much on the physical aspects of the body he is inhabiting (which makes sense after one learns of his true form). Ultimately, though, this read like an introductory book, setting up the first part of the bigger story. I sure hope there are more books featuring these characters yet to come, since I did enjoy their company during my reading.
