Simply put, the book is bad. Like, really bad. The writing is tedious, the characters and their interactions with one another are flat, and the story dragged for forever. The "climax" was a blur of a battle scene, and that was it. I didn't care for any of the characters, even when the author was trying so hard to make the reader sympathize with them.
And my goodness, the use of the traditional fantasy tropes was....annoying....to say the least.

The rape is (inferred) attempted rape. Also warnings for: massacre/mass murder (described); imprisonment (described); and beheading (described).zombiezami's review against another edition
