- Never got bored while reading and couldn’t put it down during exciting parts. 
- Liked how interesting the characters and the world building was.
- The images added in were very creative and I found it inspiring
- The only thing I didn’t like was the amount of characters and it was hard to remember who was who

Finally after promising myself I would pick up this book series for years, I did it. I do not regret it. This book surprised me in many ways and the pictures were one such surprise but I l thoroughly enjoyed this book. If your a fan of magic stories then I would recommend this.
