Priest by Matthew Colville

5.0

So, I really enjoyed this. My expectations were relatively low going in. Early on, the world building absolutely spellbound me. I like this world a great deal, and liked teasing together every small detail presented to assemble the larger picture. I would have liked it if it was simply an adventure tale. But this was much more than that. Instead of some D&D-inspired save-the-world epic, this is a much more personal tale, really making me think about big ideas and how we each process our failures and what we do to keep going. I read through this quickly,and already look forward to diving in again. Recommended.
