I found this to be highly immersive and I really enjoyed it.

It can drag at times, but I didn't mind it as much as I usually do.

Although I was unprepared for the amount of fighting and gore of this book, it was one of the best fantasy adventures with a splash of spice and romance I've ever read. I'd recommend this to all fantasy adventure lovers!
