I found the world building to be the strongest aspect of the book and I'm very disappointed that this edition lacked a map of Allward. I would've liked to be able to visually follow the characters' different journeys and to see the scale of Allward, not just read about many places without putting them in a (visual) context.

I liked this book. I felt like the characters were very vibrant and I looked forward to reading it. I thought that the whole world was really interesting and that the magic was cool. I liked the band of unlikely heroes that bounded together, and I love a side-plot romance.
I always think it's so interesting when an author chooses to give a POV to a character that eventually follows down a dark path, and I liked that aspect.
Overall, I really liked it and am looking forward to reading the next one!

Kept trying to read it but couldn't get into the story with all the bouncing characters.
