3.0

Bit slow going, especially at first, and a bit of an anti-climatic end but the emotion in this book is visceral and the worldbuilding - even when it’s confusing - is beautiful and interesting. Nijiri was such a compelling character and was mainly the reason I finished this; he doesn’t seem to be in the sequel and I didn’t enjoy this enough to continue with the series but it’s not bad and it just makes me want more books about magic surrounding dreams.
