The Ruin of Kings by Jenn Lyons
4.0
On a reread of the series after finishing book 4, most of the problems I had with this first book, including the expansive cast list, the nonlinear storytelling, etc., seemed to go away. What I was left with was an engaging story full of twists and turns—some of which I'd forgotten and was delighted to be reminded of—and clever little hints that my future knowledge made me better prepared to pick up on.
It sounds strange to recommend a book as a reread, but I think it's worth it to push through to the fantastic book 3, and when you're done with the series, give the whole thing a second spin for a more complete experience.
