The Spirus by JB Trepagnier
4.0
While this book had a good, complex plot and intriguing characters and subplots, it was a little dense for my tastes. I would have much preferred more dialogue scenes to break up the great, exhausting blocks of internal musing and exposition. That being said, it still kept my attention well enough.
The main character, Soryn, is doing a creditable job in her fate, working to use her magical abilities to shape her future. A lot is expected of her, and she has great trust issues, but they are understandable.
Frequent changes in tense and the unusual formatting sometimes made it difficult to read the ebook. Because many of the paragraphs were large, the two spaces used to indent each paragraph was insufficient to differentiate each one. The omniscient point of view was a bit confusing at times, as it drew in close to one or another character. Still, the world-building was good and the characters engaging.
