MY REVIEW
What I loved about this story... Wow, what a story. I already adore this author's writing so I was very excited to start reading this (despite this being on my TBR since it came out in 2019 - whoops!). It was probably because it is a chunkier of a book at 845 pages long and the text is not very large. Yes, this took me a while to read both because of its length and the fact that the story was very dense I needed to take my time reading this rather than trying to read it at a quick or even normal pace for me but I enjoyed every minute of reading it.
Would I recommend? Absolutely, for those who likes a very dense fantasy style story that you can get stuck into and you'll be a while in you should pick this up. I will be planning to continue this series but I think I am going to wait until its completed and start back from the beginning again so that I can binge and spend a considerable amount of time in this world. I can't wait!
