Focus was more on relationship problems. Magic seemed to be in the background and not really explained very much. There were several things (difficult situations, enemies, etc.) that were over quickly, and often ended abruptly without much explanation. However, the descriptions of the characters’ inner turmoil seemed to go on too long most of the time.
