Character
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The first 70% of the book was... quite bad and slow. Then the last 30%, although rushed and requiring a bit of an infodump from one of the characters, was pretty good, written in an earnest fairytale-like manner, with an almost jarring tone shift. That, and the fact that I'm not the target audience for the book, made me give it a generous 3 stars.
Graphic: Gore, Torture, Murder
Moderate: Sexual assault, Sexual content, Sexual harassment
Minor: Slavery, War
