cheeriope's review against another edition
5.0
I loved this book! I found it randomly mentioned in a Reddit post about romantic fantasy.
I definitely wouldn't suggest this if you want romantic fantasy, so I feel that person was way off with that suggestion. Yet, I am so happy to have read it.
The magic is fun. It's not like Sanderson where it all makes perfect sense with proper rules but it has some limitations and there are a lot of forms of it. The characters are all likable and interesting, I wanted to read more instead of skim through it.
It's an easy read too. There aren't pages of long ass descriptions of how a mountain looked or how some food tasted. Instead it's action and dialogue and story building all the way through.
I just bought the complete collection so plan to read the rest, but I'll review each book separately.
