adventurous tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

The casual misogyny and unnecessary bodily catalogues of the women in the story made this book hard to get through. I love the magic system and worldbuilding but I won't be continuing the series as I've been told the sexism continues throughout all of the books.
