You know there's going to be bother when the comet's due to show up again
The story could have spanned three books (and maybe it will) but we land in what I would consider to be the middle with the protagonist being a failed hero from the get go. This book is easy to read, albeit a bit choppy (no pun intended), particularly earlier on, though I liked that there was no flowery language, and it ticks some grimdark boxes so that's always a selling point for me. Character-wise; honestly, our apathetic protagonist got on my nerves at first but that's the point, and he does give his head a shake after a little reality check. I don't mean that bit in chapter 5! Holy sh... I was not expecting that 🤐 We also have an animal companion with the cutest name and now I want a horse just so I can call it Always a Dot 🥰
I think I'd like to see a bit more narrative over dialogue next time but I enjoyed this book and I look forward to seeing what happens next, or even before!
