3.0

I read this to get familiar with the world of Ravnica and it's lore in order to better DM a D&D campaign I'm running.
The author does a great job of describing the world and gradually over 3 books making the reader more familiar with the 10 guilds that occupy Ravnica.

However he doesn't excel at building story arcs nor describing in prose what is happening in a way that makes the reader feel like they understand everything that is going on.

I ended up reading the whole trilogy, which did help understand the world, but at times it was a bit of a struggle to get through some chapters.

The 3rd book was by the best of the trilogy.
