So much about this book is really amazing: the world building, the characters, the writing, the reveals. It's all so original. The only drawback is that I found it quite hard to get into, I think this was because the first half was quite slow. Now that I am invested in the story though I think it will be easier to get into the second book.

good scifi, but didn't really catch me. Don't think I'll read the next one.

Loved the magic system, the pov’s and the cliffhanger at the end. Just wasn’t as involved with the characters as I hoped to be. Well written and thought out but a bit emotionally superficial…
