4.0

I was slow to get into this book but when the plot started to thicken, it thickened quickly and I became fascinated by Ged and his pursuit of his Shadow.

There are so many interesting ideas that I'm looking forward to mulling over – pursuing the shadow self, confronting fear, and becoming yourself by working for it. Yes... much to think about...

Content Warnings

Minor: Gore

The main character has his face mauled by a monster,

but it's not especially graphic, hence the minor content warning for gore.
