I've never read a high fantasy book before as they were also so intense with lore drops.
This book doesn't bomb you with lore but breaks it down and does re-explain things from times, which made this a fun read.
I loved the characters and putting together to overarching story. It was brutal, but I still kept reading on.
I have never read a book this long so quickly. No big book has ever been easy to read or this fun.
The world building is so smart, the characters beyond interesting (especially Alabaster) with so much unexpected queer representation.
