'He who lives by the sword dies by it. The same could be said of magic.'

Interesting, even captivating book with one small problem: everything is moving too fast for me with some plot holes here and there. All and all, it's entertaining and easy to read. Looking forward to sequels.

What did I just read? It hasn't even been a minute since I finished the book yet I can't really remember anything of it. It's like I've been sifting through blank pages.
The writing styles is so plain it gives the book no character, it gives the story no flare and the characters are bland puppets. Most of it is just jumbled up sentences to connect Names and Places.
It would be easier to just read a short textbook description of personae, places and systems. Or better yet just roll play the damn book.
