I enjoyed this one a lot more than Legendborn, which I thought was fine, but didn't win me over. The machinations of a centuries old order with rigid rules and populated with teenagers just didn't interest me a whole lot. In this installment, we see a lot more of [mild spoilers]

the demon/human interactions outside the order and there is a greater emphasis on root craft. I enjoyed getting to meet some (partial) demons and learning that they're not as straightforwardly evil as they are painted by the order

. I'm definitely interested to see where this goes!
