I liked this, and also had a hard time keeping all the characters and political factions straight. Having said that, Martha Wells’s complex and original world building is very much in evidence here and made me curious to experience more stories about the people and places in Witch King. The ending suggests there could be a sequel, which I would definitely enjoy.
Graphic: Torture, Child death, Murder, and War
Moderate: Abandonment and Child abuse
