pretty good plot, subpar writing, foreshadowing so heavy it just gives some plot points away, AND WAY TOO FEW COMMAS. i would have been sad if i didn’t pay $16 for this with a gift card lol

PLOT: 4/5
i really enjoyed the plot. it was unique, and it's always good to just read a fantasy book. slow at the beginning, but picked up.
CHARACTERS: 4.5/5
loved. good growth and development. i liked how the most terrifying characters were literally just buff women.
WRITING STYLE: 3/5
mid. felt like aryan was scared of commas. (aryan is a terrible last name. poor guy.) sentence structure was incredibly repetitive and felt juvenile.
ENJOYMENT: 4/5
like i said, you can't go wrong with a classic fantasy novel. i am slightly in love with every character. world building was wonderful and not intimidating.
FINAL RATING: 3.9/4

This book had a great premise but it was utterly disorganised in its execution. Character motives were all over the place, lore crammed into exposition, and there was no structure in place for all the reveals that were thrown about. Toward the end there were several errors in the text. Total let down.
