We should tell fantasy authors that they don’t have to describe every piece of clothing and meal in detail. Also I finished a 34 hr audiobook in 3 days, so that’s interesting

There are large sections of the book where the pace sags,  though the last 100 pages are exciting. There are a lot of characters to follow and it can get quite confusing. Some of the characters are somewhat lovable,  but more of them are hateable- which is almost as fun.

It was good but slower paced that I’m used to and did have to drag myself through it to some points. That ending though 👌

sacculent's review against another edition

200 pages in and nothing to hook me in. Only thing i enjoyed was removed from the story way to fast to make me even feel attached to it. Dealing with all the sexual assault and misogyny doesnt seem worth it so far. I dont doubt that it gets good eventually i just cant get through the way too much slow ass build up
