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

5.0

I'm hoppin on the hype train. Fantastically written. I think the comparisons to Red Rising is apt, but this is far better; better writing, better pacing, better characters, better plot, better "magic" and world. The length seemed intimidating at first but this did not feel like I was reading 700+ pages at all. The only criticism I might level was that Vis almost was too good, too lucky at everything; but none of it felt unearned. 

I only wish book 2 was out already!
