This really didn't work for me. I did enjoy the first half/worldbuilding, but the second half fell flat. I surprisingly think this could've been a trilogy instead of a standalone. It felt really rushed in the back half to resolve plot threads.
Also 0/5 for the Dragon being the love interest. I did not need the 17 year old falling for the centuries old magic man romance. Also it was barely in the book so why have it at all?
