I really enjoyed this book. The plot was fresh and exciting. The reason I didn't go with 5 stars was because I personally felt like some things could have been explained more thoroughly, I struggled to figure out where everyone was positioned during the fight scenes and some of the worldbuilding was so obvious to our MC's POV that they weren't always expanded on.
The world is a really cool concept, I liked most of the magic system, I liked the main character because she didn't feel like a generic stand-in; she was opinionated and skilled appropriately for the journey, and self-aware.
The ending felt jumbled for me, we had been away from the starting point for so long that I couldn't remember any of the opening characters' names or roles.
