I didn't love this book - like another user said, despite the fast pace, there doesn't seem to be a lot of urgency until about 70% of the way through, which just isn't something I care for. The main character seemed underdeveloped in terms of personality as well. I listened to the audiobook and didn't care a ton for the voices and accents the actor did, but I think they did a fine job regardless. I really liked the mythology / fantasy aspects however, and the idea has a lot of potential. I also appreciated that there was no romantic subplot for the female lead, and there were some great healthy relationships surrounding the lead.
