So, so good! Having only read one of his other books, I was surprised to see Rollins enter the sci-fi/fantasy genre. The magic system reminded me of Brandon’s Rhythm magic from the Stormlight Archives. The story moves at a rapid pace, jumping from character to character, until they all meet up towards the end. I’m excited to see where the sequel will take is!
