This was quite the fun read! Excellent cast of characters, fascinating world/magic system and a whole lot of mystery and intrigue. Normally dont love time traveling/seeing the future type stuff but it was done well and sparingly here. Very interested to see how things go in the series moving forward and super curious to

get a perspective from a “big bad” character who seems to be trying to change himself for the better. Very unique setup!!
