I've heard a lot about this series over the years and was gifted a box set last Christmas. I tried to read this over the summer, but I had really gotten into the Maasverse around that time and couldn't do both series at once, so I did restart it.

It was a fast read, could easily finish it in a day if I tried. Nice world-building, but the one thing I want is a translation guide in the book somewhere. I know it's a mix of Russian and Mongolian, but it'd still be nice.

Onto the next one.
