This Dark Descent by Kalyn Josephson

3.0

I was excited for this book. As a former equestrian, this caught my attention enough that I got the Owlcrate special edition hardcover. I've read similar books such as The Scorpio Races and Ashlords, so perhaps I went into this with expectations that were a bit too high, but unfortunately This Dark Descent was a miss for me. I found the characters difficult to engage with and that in turn made the plot kind of a slog to follow. The Golum aspect is unique, but for me, that was really the only redeeming factor for this book (and the reason why I rated it 3 stars instead of two).
