Very few fantasy authors can write books this big and complex and still maintain a good pace. Even fewer can do that while writing such vivid prose that even I feel like I’m watching what I’m reading. Wang’s character building is absolutely phenomenal, and her world building is almost equally strong.
Graphic: Child death, Death, Gore, Violence, Blood, and War
Moderate: Miscarriage, Misogyny, Rape, Suicide, and Pregnancy
