I have wanted to read this book for a long time, and I am so glad that I finally did, even though it wasn't exactly what I expected. The world-building and characterizations and magic all felt so real throughout! I absolutely loved the way all of the different story lines following all of the different characters eventually wove together into a very dramatic but ultimately hopeful ending.
