There are some absolutely beautiful and powerful verses in here, but overall I think I would have appreciated it more if I had been able to listen to the poems. I don’t think they work well in this format.

Put aside on page 32. So far we've had 9 different POVs in 10 chapters. Combined with some racist language (for example: "...a French explorer of darkest Africa, who had disguised himself as a native in order to enter the mysterious continent (page 25)." I mean, seriously??), I'm just not interested in finishing this at this time.

Full disclosure, I won this book as part of a Goodreads giveaway but this in no way influenced my review. I could read books set in the Wayfarers world for the rest of my life and never get tired of them: I love this world building and moseying along with characters.
