aoffringa 's review for:

The Sword of Kaigen by M.L. Wang
3.5
adventurous challenging dark emotional sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I felt like the book was so slow almost for the entirety but it was laying the stage for what was to come, I suppose. Real in depth character and world building. The end chapters were tense, good, sad, and somewhat up lifting. Overall good message and well written.
