3.0

Barely finished. It started pretty well, has many magical elements, but drug on and on near the end. And couldn’t really decide whether it’s a comedy or drama.

Gives off the vibes of The Hobbit and it’s journey while being much more approachable to read. We are provided a slowly growing host of quirky characters on a journey/mission in which one can quests  the ending but is still enthralled in the want to know how.
