I had fun with this book. The characters and world are fun to explore together and enjoy as a reader. The adventures they get up to and endure, the stories they tell as characters. It's a classic fantasy series with political intrigue, backwater plots, and everything in between. But that also makes it blend in with a lot of other stories on the market.

Similar to the last book - solid but not overwhelming. Still not a series I'd recommend outside of fantasy buffs, and even then only as something to read while we wait for Rothfuss to finish up his next book...
This sounds more bleak than it is, and I really have nothing against Sullivan, I just feel like the plots are a bit too obvious, the characters a tad too fake, and the storyline just not quite deep enough for my liking. I do like that this has the epic feel of Game of Thrones where you really wonder how it's all going to end though.

Another fun installment with Royce and Hadrian. If you like old school fantasy, this is perfect. The addition of Princess Austria to the pair balances them out well and we get more magic in the action as a result. Such an easy read, they are no reasons not to keep reading this series.

Hadrian going through midlife crisis. Royce just wanting to be with his best friend. Thrace struggling through depression. Arista just wanting a meeting. This book was somber as much as it was fun. Loved every bit of it
