Don't let the slow start put you off; a significant amount of world building is needed and pays dividends later. Everything you'd expect from an SJM book: twists and turns throughout, a loveable host of side characters, lots of different magical beings with the own lore, a strong as hell FMC. I wasn't sure I'd like the shift to a modern world having just finished ACOSF, but it grew on me quickly!
Moderate: Torture
Minor: Suicidal thoughts
