This was a great expansion on the world introduced in Priory. Going into it with a basic understanding of the worldbuilding definitely helped me get into it more smoothly and, as a result, the plot picked up quite quickly. Overall, this was an exciting fantasy book with a great combination of classic fantasy elements and original content, and the characters were great.
