A fun, inventive fantasy that kept me guessing for a good part of the book.
I really enjoyed the characters as a whole and the twisting story line that kept things intriguing for a good part of the book. I normally get a little annoyed with a plot that has the main character left in the dark for a portion of the book but La Sala made it work here. While it was frustrating that Kane didn't know everything, it allowed me as a reader to empathize with him as he gradually discovered what was happening around him. Finally realizing what all of the foreshadowing and plot twists had been about at the finale was a great reveal and really brought home the final big boss fight for me. I also really enjoyed all the representation in the book.
The audio narration was also very good. The reader captured Kane's voice and feelings very well throughout the book and kept me invested right up 'till the end.
If you like twisty fantasy with an intriguing concept and a fabulous villain, check this book out.
