I received a copy via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

2.5

The copy I received was littered with typos which often brought me out of the story and made it hard to follow at points, however, I still found the protagonist very plain. This book had a lot of potentials I found the idea around the main character possibly being a saint and being mistaken for her miracles was interesting, but she MC was quite boring. She didn't really do much other than follow the warlord around and I wanted to learn more about the mythology.

3.5 I just wish there was a bit more in here. A lot of it I knew from just reading some of the plaques at the Tower. Still a good souvenir purchase though.

Such a delightful and emotional read.

I don't really know why I'm even reading this. I don't care about the series. The world is interesting and the writing is very good and martin is clearly talented but I really don't care about any of nor do I like it.

Also, how did I read 800 pages in so few days when I have exams???? Stubbornness is a virtue I guess.

So glad I read this! I can see how much of an influence it's had over some writers. I felt a bit too old to truly enjoy it, but I'm hoping I can revisit it at a later date and appreciate it more.
