This was a very unique fantasy read and I was hooked from the start. 

I enjoyed the lore of the Toadmen and the banter between the two main characters was *chefs kiss* 

However it did lose me a bit around the halfway- ¾ mark, the story started to feel rushed from here. It didnt end on a cliffhanger and the epilogue leads me to believe its a standalone, but some things just felt like they were left hanging? 

Overall I enjoyed this book, but I dont think I would read it again.
