I thoroughly enjoyed this book and it was exactly what I needed! Ead & Sabran are my favourite characters, but I really didn't like Niclays. The pacing was good and I enjoyed the tale. I usually hate books with heavy world-building but the author fed the information in naturally, so it was digestible. From what I gather, this book is like marmite and for me, it hit!
