The plot was interesting and hooked me right away, but the characters felt underdeveloped and the world building wasn't what it could've been.

4.5

Some of the romantic and playful interests are a bit juvenile and the treatment of royalty is not entirely expected, but the relationships formed and the adventure is carefully placed in short chapters, making much of it easily digestible.

A solid fantasy debut that is mainly consistent with its worldbuilding, although some of the characters' choices feel inconsistent.

Does a great job of introducing its characters and setting the scene for the saga ahead.
