a cool introduction to this world! i really loved the magic system, but felt like the characters weren't quite fleshed out enough for me to care about them

After languishing on my shelves for nine years, I finally gave this a shot... and thoroughly enjoyed it! Schwab is a hit-or-miss episode for me; yet this one grabbed me from the onset. I'm a little nervous to dive into the sequel when it ended satisfactorily, though.

Hehkutetun fantasiakirjailijan se teos, joka oli helposti saatavilla suomeksi. Ihan hyvä ja ymmärrän, mistä hehkutus johtuu. Tarina kulki sujuvasti ja viihdyin kyllä kirjan parissa.

Samalla jotain jäi puuttumaan ja välillä huomasin vilkuilevani jatkuvasti sivunumeroita ja huomasin tylsistyväni. En ole varma, haluanko jatkaa trilogian loppuun.
