I just love how the world building is done in this story. Followed by such interesting characters especially our main investigator she is something unique. I would love to have her interactions with her assistant. As the world is shown it reminds me of the anime Attack on Titan and which made this world more intriguing. Also it has murder mystery, along with magic and crazy stuff.

I was able to figure out things very early in the book but it is not in your face kind of mystery. I had fun time reading it, the characters are annoying and frustrating at first but you will end up probably liking them.

This book is sure entertaining, at times it feel rushed and at the same time it feel repetitive but one time read for sure, i enjoyed it.
