The Novice by Taran Matharu

3.0

This was a good read. I thought it was a good introduction to the series. I thought that the pacing was fast, and it was interesting. The world building was good. However, there are some many characters that it's confusing.

Also, I liked the characters except for Didric. I didn't like him at all. I thought he was a poor excuse of a character because of his behaviour. I really like the little demon, which reminded me of the gargoyle, Xemerius, from Sapphire Blue by Kerstin Gier.

The ending was a cliffhanger, and I thought that it could have been better. I need to see what the next book has in store. Overall, an okay read.
