The Ember Blade by Chris Wooding

4.0

I loved this book - political intrigue, inequitable caste system, magic, religion, betrayal, and friendship. I don’t think there was a moment in which I was bored in this book. The world- and character-building were phenomenal and the pacing was perfect for details and action. I’ll admit I’m not used to reading such long books and it felt like I read an entire trilogy in just this one novel, so it took me a bit longer than usual, but I would consider it worth it.
