I was intrigued because this book seemed a lot like the Hunger Games but with magic, and that's what it was, it just felt..... incomplete. Only 4 of the 7 "champions" of the tournament have chapters from their pov's and it felt disgruntled because of that, we were able to gather backstory on those 4, but every other character fell flat in my opinion, it was still a fun read, and I will be reading the second book, but I was so saddened with some of the writing decisions featured in this book.
