Pacing saved this book. If it was any harder to read I would have struggled to finish it.
I read the large print edition because that’s all they had available at my local library and that had many editing and errors. Loads of words missing or repeated. Was quite annoying.

Where this book loses marks is the battle scenes. Sometimes they are just too...wordy, or like they're trying to achieve too much. I cannot conceptualise half of the scenes in my head, which maybe is a me-problem, but sometimes I just can't picture it and it brings me out of the story a bit. (There was also that "Bye Felicia" moment and I actually took damage from cringing.)
