This! This is what I have been wanting lately. A good, chewy fantasy that is all plot and world building with no romance. There's an appendix! With an explanation of the calendars and days of the week! 

I loved Hawley and Enelda's friendship. Enelda was amazing. I loved how she managed to maintain her Vigilant persona but how we got to see her flaws as well. Hawley was my favorite kind of gruff, well-meaning soldier type. The side characters were good too! I hope we see more of Iveta in the next book.

I got a little lost in the mystery solving towards the end, but not enough that I didn't enjoy it.

Give me the next one immediately.
