Incredibly fun, it doesn’t end. It’s sad. He’s seven, he’s 25, he almost dies like four times, he dies once. THERE ARE SPIDERS THE SIZE OF DOGS. THEY SWORDFIGHT SHARKS. AND WIN

This was actually my third attempt at reading this book, and I finally did it! The content is a lot darker than my usual fantasy reads, which I think is why I struggled. That said, it was also funny and had a lot of heart. It's a shame there weren't many female characters- those that were in this book were minor.
