This was fun! Not what I was expecting, but not at all terrible. The magic system is neat! I'll definitely be reading book 2!

A very solid fantasy story with some brilliant characters (Fie and the Crows), some okay ones (Jas), and a fascinating and unique magic system. The romance was alright as well, if not a bit predictable - but I did like the way it was treated, it seemed somewhat mature and adult and not obsessed with the usual first-time-needs-to-be-perfect-and-oh-so-romantic theme. I found some of the names a bit grating as well as the use of a select few old English/Scots terms like "ken" and "betwixt" (cringed every time).

La misericordia del cuervo da comienzo a una bilogía donde el mundo, su sistema de magia y su jerarquía organizada con aves ha sido realmente interesante. Con grandes dosis de magia, acción, intriga y política, nos adentramos en una historia de venganzas, injusticias y dones increíbles de la mano de unos personajes que me han conquistado y me dejan con muchas ganas de seguir leyendo y viendo su evolución. Un debut fantástico de esta autora que deja con muchas ganas de leer el siguiente libro.
