Pretty good, interesting concept and I really liked the way it was written and the way things were handled. There were just a few things which I felt should have been big moments that just didn’t pack as much of a punch as I wanted them to which left me a little disappointed.

There were also bits, particularly some of the battle scenes, that I felt were a little difficult to follow what exactly was going on but maybe that’s just me being bad with names etc.

Also I listened to the audiobook for this and would totally recommend, the narrator has a gorgeous Irish (I think) accent and it was just so nice to listen to.
