5.0

The Curse of the Mistwraith by Janny Wurts is mainly told through an omniscient point of view, focusing on the two characters and uses hard magic. And although I prefer character driven stories with many point of view characters and low/soft magic, I feel completely immersed in this story because it has the depth and complexity of Erikson and Bakker and the prose of Guy Gavriel Kay, Tad Williams and Robin Hobb. After reading two of her books (Stormwarden is the other) I feel that Janny Wurts will now be another one of my favourite authors.
