I can't even begin to describe how disappointed I am with this book. I was hoping for a book in which Murtagh navigates the aftermath of the original cycle and his position as the anti-hero. Starting out I was curious about the thoughts of introducing logic to the magic system. But instead of following through on these interesting themes, all we got was a side quest, a cult and torture porn.
