adventurous dark tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes

• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

a delight for political fantasy lovers. I just wish Carey would stop inserting adventure plots into a story of a protagonist entirely not fit for them
