If you want to read a 500 page physics textbook about fake physics that leaves you with little to no understanding of how anything works then this is the book for you. But don’t worry, between the clumsy magic explanations and vague world building you will find a bunch of meh characters that whine nonstop. Also can straight white authors stop trying to write LGBTQIA+, female main characters. I appreciate and want inclusion but it’s basically impossible for us get their perspective.
