I LOVED this book when it came out over 20 years ago and went into this reread expecting a similar experience to my 11-year-old self. But the book was slower than I remember, and I didn't understand why much of the wandering around was included. But this also means that I don't remember the series as well as I thought I had, which makes me even more excited to continue the reread? Idk. It's very complicated. Despite my mixed bag of reactions to this book, I am full-steam-ahead enthusiastic to read Murtagh after I get through the first four books!!!

Tbh it lost me in several places on the plot bc I was listening to it on audiobook and the plot was a bit generic, but the vibes were very good and heartwarming :3
