Genuinely one of the best books I’ve read in the past 5 years. I had to limit myself on reading times, because I didn’t want to be late to things or stay up late because I couldn’t put it down. I would 100% recommend this to any high fantasy fan.

I love the way the author describes certain imagery of scenes n such, but there is definitely a problem with the portrayal of women within the story, and no poc representation at all.
