2,5/5. Exploring new genres and style at the moment I try to find what I want to dig more into and want I just want to push aside and be done with it knowing it isn't for me. At the moment, it become more and more clear to me that novella isn't my favorite media at all. I like novel, obviously, and I lie short story too, but novella, between a stretch out short story or a sketchy novel isn't something that I enjoy a lot. I still want to explore some in the horror or science-fiction department, because I think that it's a genre that short story work well with, exploring cool concept or disturbing one, so maybe that would end up better in novella, but as for fantasy novella, I'm pretty much done with them, or will be very picky in the future.

There is a reason why fantasy build series or/and massive books. It takes time to build those characters and even more that world and novella doesn't allow that to come. In this particular case of this book, the world and mythology looks promising, but we only get a glimpse, pieces, not enough to deep dive and learn about it. The character were pretty well introduce in the time/pages allow and that is a good one by the author. The writing in itself won't win it award but it was alright. The main problem with this one, was the narrative, the focus on the plot and the pace. Those threes are unfortunately majors flaws that ends up with me being bored half through it and not caring much. It had its strength too, but like I said, novella, probably wasn't the best format for this story.
