Would have really loved this if it had been 300 pages shorter. Pretty slow to get going, hooked by the middle, and then lost steam towards the end. Great characters but as always with regular POV-swaps some were better fleshed-out than others. Overall a solid fantasy epic.
Graphic: Death and Miscarriage
Moderate: Pregnancy and Alcoholism
