 I’ll be honest, I was underwhelmed by book 1 of this trilogy, The Stardust Thief. It was slow and hard to get into. But this changed all that. Action-packed and engaging, and with the helpful tool of one of your characters being a storyteller, so it’s natural to have a “previously on” blurb at the start of the novel.
