In short, it’s as if Hajime Isayama (the author of Attack on Titan) decided to allow someone to adapt his work into a novel, then add some spycraft and magic. I’m a sucker for multiple POV novels and this one knocked it out of the park. 

I also have been wanting to read this for literal years and am so glad it lived up to my expectations :’)
