Super satisfying. So much of this story comes off as intentional. I love to find that feat in fantasy. It's something I hunt for, and in this series, I found treasure. It's not perfect. It also has one of the worst covers I've ever seen. Specifically the audio version. No one should ever have to look at that cheap weekend cosplayer thumbnail when they open this book. It doesn't even have anything to do with the contents of the book. But I digress.
The series is not perfect. However, more importantly, it was ultimately satisfying. The writing, especially the dialog, improves with each book. The pacing while slow finds its rhythm by the second half. It's an enjoyable, unexpected, slow burn.
I would recommend this series to any fantasy reader. It gets my seal of approval.
