This one was a little hard to rate as, for me, it flip flopped from me loving it to it being a slog. In the end I decided to go with the first reaction when I think of the book.
My only issue is a sudden new plot point thrown in half way into the book that we should care about, and it almost felt like a different book. I understand magic and god's were in the world but it was never a focus and for that to change was a little off. When taking a step back it doesn't cover that much of the book so it didn't hinder the book too much for me.
