I’m learning I love fantasy sea journeys and complex magic systems that have a connection to political control.

The opening (and closing) scenes in this book were so brutal, that I initially put this book down and came back to it months later to try again. I’m really, really glad I did. 

I enjoyed the pace and the world that was built and the subtle romance that developed. I’m looking forward to the next novel in the series.
