I think this was a really cool and interesting start to a series. So glad it got recommended to me. There were just a few, info dumpy moments that got a little confusing. I understand Flammel is basically long living but man the names dropped throughout history I was like uhhh when was that lol but definitely enjoyed learning more about him since he was vaguely mentioned in HP (but this is not a spin off necessarily).
