This book is difficult to read at times. It is interesting to be sure but I would approach it with caution if graphic content makes you uncomfortable2ofhearts's review against another edition

First off, it feels like this book tries to hit any and all triggers possible, so be warned in advance.
Marek, a crippled, abused, motherless shepherd’s son, constantly lives under the fear of his unworthiness in God’s eye. With jealousy and anger, he commits a crime that puts him as a ward to the Lord of the fiefdom - Villiam, who is childish as the very least, abusive, controlling, and wildly incapable of his position as a lord at the very most.
This book, written in a medieval setting, gives you a sense of discomfort every page of the way.
While written to pull you in to the horror show of Lapvona you can’t possibly look away from out of morbid curiosity, Lapvona’s story falls flat without meaning. It’s a press just to see how uncomfortable you can be made.
