1.0

Read as a recommendation feoma friend Started off really well with intresting characters, lore, and magical abilities and object.

Loved the wimsy of the original setting and characters but soon turned into a court dynamics drama that I just found really long and tiring. 

The main character is made to wade thought endless shit in the journey that is meant to strengthen her in Resolve and character and better explain the working is the world. But just seems like chapters of filler to get the next book workout much pay off. 

Will not bother with the next in the series
