Really good! I liked the characters and with Torvik being murdered the stakes do feel high. I like how there's not too many PoV characters and they don't even meet, makes the world feel larger. The tainted stuff is kinda weird but interesting, I wonder where it's going. Also wonder where it's going with a giant dragon out in the world. Definitely reading the next book!
