I found the writing style took some adjustment and, scoffed a little at the start. Glad I kept on as this book was really bloody good and well written. Very unique, can be quite dark, sad, adventurous and kept me on my toes. I smashed this book out in 3-4 days which is very impressive as I usually don’t have much time to read. I definitely recommend this as a great novel to read. Already bought the second and third novels and can’t wait to read them! 

Moving on, there’s a very unique magic (not really the word but, is) system. 

I’m quite a writing snob (poor writing just puts me off immediately) and this book has quality. Pick it up if you haven’t already!
