DID NOT FINISH

Difficult to follow, but did enjoy the parts I understood. I don’t think my brain works the way this book is meant to be read unfortunately.

First, the voice acting in the audio book is top tier. The book is one long suspense novel, narrated by a silly little guy (Gideon), with much SAD but also much funny. Idk if the second book will be able to match up in humor (cause ya know), but I will be listening to it.

The world building is so, so good. And I’m always a sucker for necromancers. There was so much mystery, and still so many questions left to be answered.

The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars SPOILER is cause I like a happy ending 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
