Tends towards the endless rambling speculation about crap that is pretty straight forward. Wordy and flowery for little addition to the story. Do we seriously need hours of fake spell chants? Do we need to flagrant non communication throughout? You know, like when the protagonist agonizes about something that could be solved by simply opening a mouth and asking a question. So many things are a nerdgasm over some fake magic system. This is a 2 hour story and the rest should have been on the editors chopping block.

This keeps you hooked, well thought out. the Authour ties in deep with the other three books. As well as embodying the phrase " Don't judge a book by it's cover!" extremely well. My true rating is 4.9 stars however 5 stars is closer... Because in the 24hrs of this book he illustrates vividly what one could expect or emphasize if put in the same situation. Yet seems ever so slightly cut short no doubt due to some editorial dicrimination. Specifically in the power scaleing/growth area. Clarified in the next books though.

really enjoyed it
