onyxolotl 's review for:

The Spear Cuts Through Water by Simon Jimenez
5.0
adventurous dark emotional hopeful reflective tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The style of storytelling was very refreshing and I enjoyed the characters as everyone seemed to have more thought than just being a stand-in for plot convenience sake. Everything felt realistic in a fantastical way.
