Worth a read

This book is a quick, enjoyable read despite its intimidating length. The writing is quite polished; I only came across a scattered few typos or misspellings in the KU file, and the grammar or writing style never pulled me out of the story or caused confusion. It has a decent amount of worldbuilding, so readers feel like they have a good grasp of the setting and reasons behind the way the world is, but without being confronted with infodumps or lengthy history lessons. The characters are all fairly well-crafted, relatable to some degree, and seem human. Being the first in a series, some portion of the book is essentially prologue to set up our characters for the remaining books in the series. However, it didn’t feel like I was just reading a prologue. The events felt meaningful and I cared about the outcome. I didn’t come out thinking it was the best thing I’d ever read, but I did enjoy it and I’m definitely looking out for the release of the next book. I intend continue the series and think it’s well worth a read.… (más)
