The actual world building and characters are quite interesting and the writing flows well, and the dialogue is well written. That is this book's saving grace. That and the narrator of this audiobook. He does an excellent job bringing these characters to life.
I would recommend this book to those not easily put off by tough topics and those who find political intrigue interesting. If those two things aren't for you, I'd pass on this as there are many other fantasy stories that would probably be better for you.

The tags are a warning, there are a lot of dark topics. They are not the focus, but they do show up. Descriptions are sometimes detailed, but often vague and brief.sav_22's review against another edition
