This book was paced a little weirdly, the first half felt quite superfluous and it really didn't further the story. The second half was at least plot relevant but still felt unnecessarily long.

Again, the main character made stupid choices so that the author could ham-handedly force information on us. Like what the actual f*ck was that battle scene? 

Jaevid literally did no fighting. Unless you consider transfiguration of a giant pig combat? The scene was awkward, hard to follow and boring. The torture scenes were unnecessary and accomplished what exactly? The final revelation of Jaevid's powers was pretty underwhelming and to include a THIRD training arc just to provide a protagonist that is still unprepared is wild.
