confusing and underwhelming, written like a YA author trying to be more mature. historically inaccurate cursing and too much POV switching.

the 'action' scenes were confusing, the reveals weren't very exciting. magic system wasn't explained very well and the ending was bleh.

it's a bleh read. i promise you'll find something better if you look.
