Epic fantasy with a great deal of imagination. Slow-burn storytelling with well-established characters and a detailed fantasy world. Despite its well-defined system of magic, enough of the lore is left mysterious to appeal to a sense of wonder. Suffers from some plain writing in places but uses structure to keep the reader's attention. There is quite a lot of lore to digest which will hopefully pay off as the story continues in the subsequent books in the series.
