Amazing storytelling, as usual by this author. Got me on a chokehold until I finished all 520 pages in just a couple days, very addicting.
I like how there's many unexpected developments but some comforting little cliches. Like a hug after everything you believe in crumbles in front of your eyes. But I mean it in a very good way.
Please check trigger warnings, it's fantasy with some gore and dark/heavy topics.
